Perspective in 3d space refers to a refer to singular plane, an entire building is space itself and encompases all three dimensions

Its plainly obvious you are total oblivious and clueless to Architectural photography techniques

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architectural_photography

A tenet of architectural photography is the use of perspective control, with an emphasis on vertical lines that are non-converging (parallel). This is achieved by positioning the focal plane of the camera at so that it is perpendicular to the ground, regardless of the elevation of the camera eye. This result can be achieved by the use of view cameras, tilt/shift lenses, or post-processing.

Classic ad-hominem, I should have posted this picture when you claimed the bottom half of the world spun in an opposite direction as the top half :wacko:


So I clearly showed that the buildings in the image are wider at the bottom than at the top. The sides of the buildings get closer and closer together in the image. But somehow they are parallel and not converging, all because you posted a random text quote from somewhere? Makes sense, solid argument.

First 3 minutes of this video are scarily obvious.

/e now show me that picture of a flat earth plz


Felix's view 3 second before he stepped out, this scene is with a normal angle lense - the horizon is flat as fuck

Deny that , the ball is just fantasy.



Now see the difference with a fisheye lense:



No one has ever explained this - fucking no one ever - cause it cant be denied

the majority are full of complete shit, their word means absolutely nothing.

What do you want explained? Are you so goddamn dense that you don't understand perspective? The earth seems flat to a small observer sitting or living on the plan but is spherical to an outside observer. This is why we know general geometry is applicable on a small scale level but to plan thing such as flight paths we must use non Euclidean geometry.

Its flat, get over it. Don't let fisheye lenses blind you.

Once you flip the picture up the right way, you'll see the perspective distortion and how close it is, the picture is not made using a fisheye but certainly wide angle.

Do you know what the curvature formula is?

Are you so blind you can't see the flat horizon outside Felix's capsule at 130,000 feet? And that picture is made with a normal angled view camera.

I love blind people - I got some waterfront land in florida to sell, ill give you a special deal ok buddy?

Globe, voted globe. I do enjoy the FE theory, it's fun, but no thank you.

Card doesn't understand geometry. Even the most basic things like triangles, really.
