Severely, next it'll be some Bio-Static Lens Flare...

Some information on heat distortion when uaing tele lens

I've quoted the summary from the end, but its worth reading everything and more.

How Heat Waves Affect Photography Summary

The summary is short. The reason why some of your telephoto images are not sharp is because heat waves are bending the light and confusing your camera's AF system. The basic lesson here is that using the long focal lengths to photograph distant (and sometimes no-so-distant) subjects must be done with consideration to the effect of heat waves

Unless those windows are drawn on it would be impossible to create window frames and fitting windows in that shape (unless you 3d printed them)


Edit: the outside temperature can be minus 20 and you will stilll get this effect if there is something warmer than minus 20 between the subject your photographing and your lens

You can see the effect in this video..

It's especially noticeable at the 9 second mark, but also during the ribbon cutting.

Wacky bastards. What the heck was behind not letting anyone use the toilets? Makes me wonder if any of that show piece city is actually plumbed in or has an extensive sewer system.

a reply to: Kandinsky

With tens of thousands of people there, it will get messy quick.

a reply to: Chadwickus

A *real* town, yeah.

With the NKs, can we be sure it's real? Could be one of their Truman Show set-pieces for PR. All surface and no depth.

Just a thought.

a reply to: Kandinsky

Nope, it all could just be a facade...literally and figuratively..

Kimmy should feed his barber to the dogs.

Looks like Kimmy ate his dog.

Wow even the left edge looks like its an unrolled fake wall print

a reply to: TheConstruKctionofLight

I see its heat effect on lens...why didn't I consider that before posting...

a reply to: IgnoranceIsntBlisss

I'm unsure if you're trolling or not. As has already been explained, it's a phenomenon often referred to as either heat shimmer, haze, or waves.

I enjoy a good conspiracy theory as much as the next guy, but this is ludicrous, lol

Chill out
it's just an innocuous
nuclear death omen

OP: Best thread's title in weeks

a reply to: IgnoranceIsntBlisss

oh dear - its been explained to you - but still you persist

you dont need a high temperature to cause a thermal distortion - just a differnce in temp between 2 masses of air

and lastly - if you claim is valid - why has no foreign journalist noted it ? hey there were actually there you are just expressing your scientific illiteracy through the medium of photographic missrepresentation

Source uploaded the photo April 12.

"Uploaded" is different that "took."

I've uploaded numerous things to the web before that were not created the same day.

And even if it was taken on the same day as uploaded, it's distortion, plain and simple--it would take 10 times the effort to cut and build with wood in that way than to cut and use straight pieces.

Are you trying to imply that it's just a big printed backdrop waving in the breeze or something, or are you really pretending that they build with wood that looks exactly like that in real life?

nvm

So 65F day means windows buckle every which way?

I'm trying to imagine if it were a 95F day, which is common in my state half the year.

Nope, try again.

No one (other than yourself) is making the ignorant claim that windows "buckle," under heat. No one. You're making that up.

a reply to: IgnoranceIsntBlisss

Heavy atmosphere. Shimmering. Makes windows look distorted when zoomed.

North Korean determination. It's no joke!







Alright I give up. Kim trolled me with his funny village. He knew I'd drink a bunch of beers last night, and plotted to nuke my imagination!

Mods maybe move this to jokes.
