re: #543 CuriousLurker

The perspective: Look at the full-size pic and note the size of the “bees” flying towards the swarm in relation in relation to the guy in the service vehicle in the foreground (and they’re farther away than he is).

So there are bees at least as big as sparrows flying right past him towards a HUGE, presumably deadly, swarm and he doesn’t even glance over his shoulder. Uh-huh. @EWErickson #FAIL.

It looks like the wingtip of one of those new planes with the vertical thingies at the end of the wing. The bees are actually in the FOREGROUND, and the swarm looks so big because the pic was shot with a telephoto lens which flattens perspective, so the ground crew in the background looks to be in front.

The swarm is probably a foot or so across. Also very unlikely it came in like that, since AFAIK there’s no place to hide out there.

OR, it’s all ‘shopped.
