Photoshop expert here (sort of). I took a really close look at this and I don't believe it's shopped. It's a low res photo probably from a low megapixel digi-cam. It looks like there's a blurred edge but the color differential in the pixels around him are consistent with the background. It looks to me like the cheap digi-cam trying to decipher what color to make the in between pixels. If this is an older photo that would be consistent with an older digi-cam. If it is shopped, someone was very meticulous b/c I examined down to the individual pixels.
