a sword...
If Roman soldiers had guns, bringing a sword wouldn’t be applicable.
Rektum? you still in here?
Tiananmen Square is still empty
That one. ^
i can't see mount rainier from vancouver at ground level, but when i get on a plane and go up, i can see it on the horizon
When we elevate and look down, this walkway, and building can be seen as entirely flat. There’s a perspective ramp we see to a point that does block the bases of distant buildings.
cameras can make things look weird @the first image
the curve does exist in the first image
It’s like saying we can see curve on a basketball close up, but not when we elevate the camera off it.
if you go up high enough, you will see the curve
We do actually see the curve in the second imagine and we can tell it's not a fish eye
Oh really, April?
rockets don't go straight up for a reason, it's inefficient
Where?
basic optics
the effect on the first image is called fish eye, it creates a distorted view of the bridge
Near the horizon it's not too noticeable the curve is a small curve due to how big the earth is
The first image isn’t fisheye.
it looks flat in the second photo because you're above and the earth is kinda big relative to the bridge
it is though
It’s Soundly’s photograph.
If we can see curve at surface level, we absolutely would see it at higher elevation.
Period.
its an optics distortion
the curve is exaggerated because of the lens the photo was taken with
Sounds like you have a beef with Soundly.
