A quiz- which one is the "real" photo?

Some of what I teach has to do with sensory perception, and how different animals sense different portions of the energy spectrum. That different animals live in different sensory worlds.

 

A while back I took a photo that I had and photoshopped it. It was taken from the deck of a place I was staying in Maine. It's not a great photo, but perfect for my purposes.

 

Just today I gave this "quiz" to a set of students, and got the same results as other times I'd presented the quiz. Very interesting results.

 

Thus it occurred to me to wonder which picture the experts out there, flickr members, would choose as the "real" photo. I mean the one I took with my digital camera and downloaded, versus the other four that I photoshopped.

 

So, I'd be most grateful to viewers if they would give their vote (1, 2, 3, 4 or 5) in the comments.

 

Uh, I'm a scientist, btw. I'm really interested in the responses of photographers, versus those of my students..
