This is a ridiculous attempt at explaining why the "757" was nowhere as
tall or long as a real 757. Camera lenses do not shrink planes physically.

You didn't happen to see how the distant trees appear smaller (shorter
and closer together) in the wider angle pictures? That's a Mr.
Obvious thing........ if you can't see that, I'm wasting my time.

You remind me of the guy in the pawn shop that I sold an inch-pound
torque wrench to. Pawn Shop Guy: "What's that Mr.?" Me: It's an
inch-pound torque wrench. P.S. Guy: "Awwwww, you can't fool me, I know
you can't combine inches and pounds."

I gave up on him too.....

Yeah, but was it a right-handed or left-handed wrench?

That happens in all photos where distance is involved. The vertical
stabilizer would be shrunk or distorted in the same way as the rest of the
plane.

There is no fuselage apparent, in proportion to the tail.

And especially with a logo, as you claim to see.

Giving up sounds like your best bet.
