It is photoshopped in that the people and some items standing on the street, as well as background and foreground, have been composed and copied, thats why there are graphical artifacts, like non-matching shadows and people gazing odd. But I take it from the article and the picture texts that the main motive, the bicycle riders, are real. The pictures have composed and edited toi maximise the contrast between modernity and backwardedness, and to show the giant buildings of the baqckground against the giant loads of the simple people with their bikes, says the text.
It is looking odd, and I would think "photoshop" too - if only I would not understand the texts and the article differently.
