OK, I ran 100 points through a vector program, and all 100 points have the same shadow angle. This includes 20 points on the shaking rope. So I personally believe this to be a true picture, as the amount of effort to produce the shadows correctly for all aspects is too high imo.
Other info: I do not believe a camera phone was used, as the shutter speed of my camera phone did not produce the freeze of the water as in the photo when I tested this by dropping a brick into a bucket.
However, my compact digital Fuji film camera did produce the same freeze, so its shutter speed was fast enough, so it may be possible.
It also took me eleven attempts with the camera phone to catch the splash, as there is a delay in the camera phone as it figres out what to take a picture of. The Fuji Film camera got the shot first time.
