Carme Chacón is the spanish minister of defense. This photo of her, probably part of a magazine spread, is a quiz at Photoshop Disasters. Out of almost 8,000 guesses, 46% of the responses say this is a perfectly normal photograph. What do you think? Link -via J-Walk Blog
Update: Mighty Optical Illusions explains this picture. Link -Thanks, algomeysa!
I only saw the weird face in the window behind her lol.
Crossing your legs as picture, both feet should not be able to touch the floor. Her apparent left foot should be off the floor.

Her left hand is on her left leg. Which is attached to that left thigh. The hand and black sleeve are blocking your view of the knee.
In short: Spain's minister of defense is more flexible than your minister of defense.
Her right upper arm is too short and isn't as long as the other side.
Direction of the spine:
The upper part of body seems to be facing a differnt direction than her pelvis.
It appears that there are two shots merged together to make the pose.
"What has happened, is that Carme covered her left thigh in a way where it appears it’s pointing left, instead of it actually pointing up. This photo has been featured in several world sites as a wrong retouch, but after all the false spotlight it received, the agency who took the shoot explained how the legs were actually not crossed at all! I’m not sure I managed to explain what is happening here, but be sure to check the solution I created with help of the Photoshop (below) – it’s still hard to imagine, yet it should explain the illusion."

What a joke: Posting a real photo and asking people if they can find something wrong with it.
Not funny Neatorama.
The left leg looks like it's her right leg because her arm is covering it awkwardly and making it look like it's crossed.
If they shopped it, they were probably adding the "crossed leg" to make her hips look less wide. If she looks like she's crossing her legs, it would be more flattering than "hey she's pretty wide there". However, they appear to have neglected the obvious, if they did shop it.
