Yup! That goes well beyond a telescopic pic. longship Jan 2017 #3

If it were a telescopic pic, the curvature of the horizon would be bigger. DetlefK Jan 2017 #4

A telescopic view leads to compression and distortion in the foreground. I see a more or less flat field there.

However, the horizon is yet another bit of evidence.

My best to you, as well as to the OPer for a great pic.

An R&K for you, Yui!
