Is it just me, or does this picture seem off with the rest of the ARG?

Maybe they saw all the complaining on the last two amateur pics they posted and decided to switch to another style...

It seems a little morbid, but does leave a lot of questions. Like,
Who's blood is that?
Victims of MGP?
MGP himself?
Why is the man looking and the blood lustfully?
Is he a vampire?

Does anybody else see what looks like someone else's head right at the lower half of the obvious guys legs? It seems impossible for anyone to be that low and still look like they're standing up, but it seems like there's something else there.

Use http://www.1-18-08.com/images/pic_10.swf , it allows you to zoom. I see what your saying about another head, but after further scrutiny, i don't think thats what it is. I don't think its important....could be child though. Nothing like taking your kid out for a nice day of blood fishing...

It doesn't look like a "victim" to me... it looks like they're chumming the water.
Remember Jaws ? How they're throwing bucketfuls of blood in to the water to attract Bruce? Could they now be trying to attract MGP?
Looks to me like a redneck fisherman chumming the water hoping to attract something big. But, if he knew what he was trying to attract, would he be crazy enough to do it in a little dingy?
Then again, back to Jaws , there is that one classic scene of six people cramming in to a little dingy (the one which Hooper refers to when he says "...none of them are going to make it out of the harbor alive.").
Do remember that Jaws is one of J.J.'s favorite movies. He even had footage of it in the TED speech.

He's not alarmed because the blood is photoshopped in. Me, all you'd see is a wake in the blood. I'd cut the lines and get the hell out of there, because I wouldn't want to meet whatever made THAT mess!
Maybe he's had too many Slusho!s, so he doesn't care about the blood - it's a happy Strawberry Tasty color!
And it does look like a child next to him. Wouldn't you think that whomever took that picture would be yelling at the person to get the hell out of there? Unless, again, it's after the monster's dead (if it does indeed die)....

I get the idea that they are trying to attract MGP. However, knowing how big it is, don't you think, if that were the case, they would have brought a tad bigger boat. Come on.

You can see what looks like a dock/buoy on the bottom right.
I have stated before that I think the monster is a female. The blood in the water could be because she got her period.
"barfs in mouth chokes it back down"
hey, its a natural thing dude, and it doesn't feel good. I could go into graphic detail about what it's like being on your period but I won't.
In the immortal words of Mr. Garrison "How can you trust anything that bleeds for 7 days and doesn't die?" j/k all

Monster Chum?
So, after months of nothing they decide that this is the only site they will be updating every day with some new pics that have no meaning for us?
If this is all they got left, looks like game over..

This recent pictures are only to show MGP's progression to NYC.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
This pic they may be killing the spider crabs that come off him.
The blood may be to attract them or the result of animals that burst due to their bite.

Perhaps it is just wounded from the attack and now dieing, it heads to New York to die? After the Naval attack it was confused and took off in the wrong direction. Navy was arrogant and assumed it was dead. It is far too much blood for anything else. This has to be MGP blood.
Or it could have followed the Naval ships that attacked it back to New York.
