2. I'd say
I do hope that is a photoshopped image.

Sharks scare the bejeezus outta me. I grew up across the street from the ocean, and still have a hard time going in the water, after seeing Jaws.

Mind you, the last great white fatality in my state was in my hometown. It was over 50 years ago, but still. . .

8. Nope, not Photoshop
That is a real dolphin

http://www.snopes.com/photos/animals/surfer.asp

Origins: The photograph displayed above is indeed real, but it doesn't depict the hair-raising scene most viewers think it does.

This picture was taken by photographer Kurt Jones on 9 April 2003 at Surfrider Beach in Malibu, one of California's premier surfing beaches. But as the version of the photograph posted on the web indicates, however, the ominous-looking finned creature lurking just beneath the surface of the waves is a dolphin (possibly a bottlenose), not a shark.

10. I yield to snopes.
But some other site that I can't remember, said photoshop a while back. Should have checked snopes.

9. Definitely NOT photoshop.
But it's not a shark it is a dolphin.

Check snopes, there's a story on it there.
