Photo of the Day

Steam train under Querétaro (Mexico) aquaduct
Is it real or is it photoshopped? From Burro Hall.

Update 2016 added caption to picture.

  1. PS-ed. look at the second aqueduct pillar" its bottom should be on the same line as pillar #1 and #3. There is simply no space for the train there if the pillar base is on continuing line.
    Besides, the planes are almost parallel: that can't happen, either

  2. I'll grant you, it does look weird. But you cannot see the base of the middle pillar, it is behind the train, and if the picture is to be believed, the base is behind the railroad tracks as well. The line of the tracks would form an acute angle with the aquaduct, but the arches are wide, so it is possible. Lastly, why would anyone fake it? That's what I don't understand.
