I think we couldn't know that that shadow is missing without seeing the original photo. So imo that's not a mistake.

In the original image on the left you can see the edge of the phones shadow on the ground though (look under his armpit).

Yes, that was what I was saying: We only know that that shadow is missing because we have the original image. If we wanted to give a doctored image to someone to mislead them, then we would not be giving the original for comparison.

Oooh that's what you're saying. Sorry, I misunderstood.

Well, I concluded it from the fact that we can't see the edge of the phone's shadow on the shirt, even in the doctored image, so that shadow would need to appear on the ground. But it's such a minute detail and his work on their faces looks so real that it would definitely fool most people.
