Hunger Games stills. Includes Katniss, Peeta, Haymitch, Cinna, Rue, and the crazy announcer lady whose name totally escapes me right now.
Joyce: You don't think it's too obvious? I think I look like I have a cat on my head. Buffy: But a very well groomed cat. Joyce: Well that's a comfort.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Okay, a) this is probably not what I'm supposed to be taking away from this and b) I just now bought my first compound bow, not longbow, so I am by no means an expert. But that looks to me like a seriously, seriously jacked up archery shot. Like, I hope it's bad photoshop.

Yeah, that's the take in the iO9 comments, as well. I suspect it's Photoshop, too.

That's what a few commenters said. Like it looked like she posed without a bow and it was added later.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
But it's a weird thing even if so. Assuming she's the only real thing in the photo, it's still wrong for her to have her finger braced against the (fictional?) arrow. Best case it'll catch the fletchings and throw off her shot, worst case is havoc.
Some of the commenters thought the arrow was real, but if so, it's being held very very oddly, flopped over her wrist, so I think it's not. If the bow is fictional, then they positioned it in very oddly, because you'd never nock so off centered on the string like that. And then she's not sighting along the bow at all, which would make sense if it wasn't real.
But surely the actor has put some time into archery practice? Since it's such a major character point? I can't justify the photo at all.

If it's the only real thing, though, maybe that's why it's resting on her arm like that.
But, you know, people with their fingers on the trigger. I just hope it doesn't have any bearing on the quality of the drama, and I don't think it should.
