There are as many different winch chun versions as there are wing chun teachers. Almost every teacher teaches the art differently, some combine it with some other styles etc... As for how many lineages there are, Iv heard there are over 100 different lineages.

LEE SING WING CHUN
Founder: Lee Sing
Line: Line: (Yim Wing Chun & Leung Bok-Liu?) -> Wong Wah Bo & Leung Yee Tai -> Leung Jan -> Chan Wah Sun -> Fong Sung & Ng Chun So & Yip Man & some of Yip Man's students (Lok Yiu, Jiu Wan, ?), ? - > Lee Sing
Curriculum: Siu Nim Tao; Chin Kuen (Arrow Punch); Chum Kiu; Sao Bao Kuen (Sandbag Form); Sap Lok Gerk Fat (16 Kicking Form); Seung Kwan Fat (Douple Stick Form); Chi Kwan Fat (Chi Kwan Set); Bil Chee; Chi Kung Fat (Chi Kung Set); Mok Yan Jong Fat; Luk Dim Boon Kwan (6 1/2 Pole- 4 different sets); Bart Jam Do (8 .
Note: I have been told that this style resembles the Sup Yee Sic of Yuen style, which came from Chueng Bo (a great-great grand-student of Fung Siu Ching) to Sum Nung. I have also heard that it uses something like Yuen style's Hoi Sic (Opening Form which I believe Sum Nung created for Yuen forms) in which case it is *very* likely that there is a connection between Cheung Bo (or his "relatives") and/or Sum Nung. Note: Both Yuen style and Fong style have also been called "Side Body" at times, so there may be another connection there.

here is an another style of wing-chun, it's called orthodox wing-chun.
Train with a lineage of Grand Masters. Learn Wing Chun, Pak Mei and Tai Chi. Elevate mind and body through authentic Shaolin Kung Fu in Montreal.
I trained their for 1 years and a half, it's very effective and the training is really hard.

No one has mentioned Wing Tsun (Leung Ting).
Internation Wing Tsun Association (Leung Ting)
European Wing Tsun Organization

Your point?
Take a closer look at the images.
The "original" looks more fake than the supposed counterfeit.
The chin (from the left eye down) is skewed to the right.
It is interesting to note that in the "original" (non Leung Ting photo) the man's head is larger than the Leung Ting photo. This would have been hard for Leung Ting to fake in the 70's (that photo was first seen in the 70's - a bit before Photoshop). That picture is also not as sharp as the Leung Ting photo.
Besides there are other photos taken with Leung and the late grandmaster at that location. Plus there is the interview with grandmaster Yip Man in another issue of New Martial Hero where GM Yip Man states that Leung Ting is his closed door student.
It would seem silly for Leung Ting to fake a photo when so many other photos exist. Leung Ting has perhaps more photos with the late grandmaster then any of his other students. Many of the other students of the GM Yip Man have group photos or perhaps one personal photo, but Leung Ting has many - at open demonstrations, in Kwok Keung's home learning dummy techniques, at Leung Ting's wedding, his school etc. etc. Why would he need to fake a photo?
