    Interesting, but it is not entirely accurate, these two particular Photos were debated at the NY Times here, and here, here and finally here. I was part of that discussions at the NY Times and I was one of the ones who thought it was actually wrong and Fenton has been given a bad rap over it. So the site is wrong on that account, proof shows it was not a hoax and if you know how to look and analyze minor details and outside the obvious you can spot what others don't. I also posted Fenton photo discussion here a while back.
