Ticha was busted after social media users started posting pictures alongside the original photographs that they’d found on the web. One of the images she used belonged to Finnish landscape photographer Tiina Törmänen, and the Finnish Embassy in Bangkok couldn’t help but make a joke about it on their official Facebook page. “Northern lights in Finland are so beautiful that many people wish they could experience them…” they wrote alongside an article sharing the news of Photoshopping Ticha’s antics. Ticha responded by deleting the pictures she’d stolen, but since then her Instagram account has completely disappeared. (h/t: petapixel)
