    You could have at least made it look less fake... >.<

    I thought it was a very good job. You can still tell it's a cut and
    paste, but the selection was done very nicely. Start with higher
    resolution images, adjust the rider to match the lighting of the scene
    (some of this can be faked) and make sure there aren't any halos around
    the edges.

    Or just jump off a car! Still photos can lie about how you landed. 🙂

    why have 2 shadows from one light source?? look on the hood of the
    car...

    I see a fuzzy shadow on the hood of the car, and a crisp shadow from the
    light post and the man walking. Plus if the rider is jumping off the
    top of the car, his shadow wouldn't be on the hood anyway.

    The sun. Which was in a different location in relation to the rider than
    it is in relation to the rest of the image.
