Default What Panzer division is this/picture location?

I'm pretty sure this is a SS division and I'm unsure of the location this was taken - hard to tell. Identifying the division would give a hint if this was Eastern or Western front. Thanks in advance!

I'm thinking it's the 83rd Division of "WHAT". Location looks to be that of the back yard.

nice try!,
good lookin tank(can we get a clear pic?)
Its a HL( barrel in constant recoil and crooked seam above spare tracks, gave away+ too tall of grass)
Very creative though!!!

Time to replace those spare track links, they're useless now. That photo was snapped with the gun in recoil....

Well guys that's my HL - you got me! I thought I'd try a little ruse. Of course GD is right - its Das Reich and the backyard is correct.

Those are fantastic photos though, the aged newspaper look makes the viewer think it's a 60 year old picture.

I would think the best chance for a real fake photo would be to do it on dirt, sand or, snow grass would give away the scale to quickly. unless it was
real fine and cut short.

I expected to be caught rather quickly - grass was chosen because it was what was available right away. With the right amount of playing around, I can do even better than this on a better place. If anyone wants me to do this to one of their pictures and you don't have a good photo program like photoshop, send me the file and I'll septia it for you.
