Nice photo but it must have been photoshopped? Paul looks a lot younger than he did forty years ago when I saw him at the Take It Away video shoot.
You quoted the 2022 photo taken on the 28th! What photo are you referring to that Paul looks younger?
It was the 2022 photo with Paul waving from the car. His hair might be grey but his skin looks far too young, so it was his face (rather than his hair) that looks photoshopped and makes him look younger than how I remembered him forty years ago.
Oh, you mean how smooth his face looks! I don't know - the photo was sent by a friend of mine to another friend of mine, then to me. I'll contact the original person and ask her if she actually took the photo and was it edited.

And thinking about it , hasn't he been sporting a 3 day old beard during this tour?
Are you trying to wind Nancy up?
ROTFLMAO! -
Fall of 1968. Looks like he's smoking a joint, but it may just be a flaw in the photo! Wearing the famous shirt that is now in the R&R HOF!

Later part of 1976. With Pattie & Eric Clapton. The tall guy with the sunglasses is Tony Bramwell (he identified himself on FB after someone posted this and asked who the other 2 guys were - someone said the other guy was Stephen Bishop, then Tony wrote "Stephen Bishop & Tony Bramwell" but he may have been kidding about SB.)

Here's the story: The photo is a screen grab off of a video a friend of my original friend took! My friend was at the Orlando concert as well and said that he had shaved. Got to check the concert videos on YouTube to verify this.
I know - "Get a life!"It doesn't look like he has any scruff in this video from Orlando.

I know - "Get a life!" It passes a bit of time and its fun so that's the main thing.

Is that a photo or a painting of a photo?

I'd say that was photoshopped.

Thanks. I know some artists are so talented that their paintings etc look like photographs. My cousin is one of them, a very talened artist. Oobu24....it could be photoshopped i guess.

People on FB insert all kinds of pics onto items Paul is holding or Tshirts he's wearing. But who knows?

True, but for some reason I think this one may be real. As you say, only Paul and the original photographer knows.

There's a really cool poster of Abbey Road, where it looks like Paul is holding it up. I don't think it's real, however, the poster is really nice.
As far as realistic painters, Shannon MacDonald does a great job. Some of her paintings are in the Hard Days Night Hotel -

His hair looks like he has highlights in this photo.

^ I think he is having something done to his hair because if he let it go totally natural it would be completely silver. (He has done this during 2020/2021)

I agree. At least he found a good hair dresser this time.
