@Moist Mayonnaise watch the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vSAlVua7T4g

if you view of the ship to a hotel window, you would see the entire ship because your angle has changed just like if you rised your view to see the whole coin

I just want to ask, so I understand:
if we say the table is the flat earth
and the coin is the ship

@Citizen Z You requested that someone made a simulation of how light works for you.. I just did that for how I think you think it works, could you please answer whether or not it is?

On the flat earth, how do you take a picture?

Is the camera in the ground?

Or is it above the ground

simple question

you are on flat earth, you can take a picture whereever you are

cellphone/camera

Yep yep. But when you take a picture, do you hold the camera infront of you, or put the camera in the ground?

your perspective varies depending on how tall you are and where you hold the camera

so the camera is not like this, Kevin?

you can hold the camera from the ground or 6 feet off the ground, you'll see less from the ground and more 6 feet off the ground

That's not an answer to my question

yes or no

and if you are in a hotel room lets say on the 3rd floor, you will see more

you're on the beach

and want to photo the horizon

its an example of a video you refuse to watch

its a model

I've watched it

the entire video you watched where it talked about optics

Exactly. But it doesn't apply when the camera is **above the ground**

when its talking about the first parts of the video of view distance, that applies regardless of where you look at it from

you can only see so far and stuff gets smaller the further out it is

of course

but we have a zoom lens *:v*

so perspective says a ships bottom is under the horizon

but if you zoom in you can see the entire ship

No?

its not blocked

There is no way a ship can be under the horizon if the camera is above the horizon

asking me or him?

you can have the entire ship disappear over the horizon, none of it visible, then pull it back into view with zoom

false

your eye can't see it because of perspective

there are videos online where you can see that

but a camera can

once the camera can't
