If you look to the right, you can see a blonde top-less .If you look to the left,it can be seen a nude brown haired beauty."

That is one of the strangest damn pictures I've ever seen.

To get a sense of scale and spacial relationship, look at the size of the people it appears to be flying over. Now look at the windows on the plane. The plane has to be WAY back there, over by that hotel...  Yet, the plane is in pretty good focus, as are the cars in the foreground, and the area that the plane really IS flying over is blurred out. Cool effect.

Ok - my caption? Uhm... uh... Ok.

AAAIIIEEEE WE"RE ALL GOING TO DIE!!!!!

Oh yah Rip - I didn't mean to imply that the pic was altered. Just was saying it is one of those instances where the depth of field, cropping etc. all came together to create this really great illusion.

Ya know, like those pics where you make it appear like some miniature person is standing on yer hand... or goofin' on the leaning tower of Piza. That kinda thing.


-----edit----

Btw Rip, its the same kinda effect that ya see with that Navy knife-edge pic being talked about over on AGW.

Rgr, Nash, I knew what you were implying, didn't want anyone else to think it was altered, and as a matter of fact, I cannot even promise you it wasn't!  As I was not the photographer!...

Kinda like using a zoom lense when a full moon is rising on the horizon...I love photos that distort!

"Last Gas For 6000 Miles," the sign said.  But nooooo!  "We can make it," you said. "I'm not payin $1.65 a gallon!"  Where are we gonna find Jet A-1 around here, Mr. Smartypants, eh?  At least I brought swimtrunks!

Or, at the risk of being a bit insensitive...

It's a 747 doing an Airbus imitation.

"Having rioted and taken over control of the Air France 747, the Japanese tourists demanded a low aproach over the beach for an optimal photo oportunity."
