Yes. Very clearly an optical illusion caused by a badly ground lens or it has been photshopped.

A quick visit to https://www.tfes.org/ or https://flatearthers.org/ will disburse one of any silly notions about the Earth being a ball or spinning or traveling around the Sun.

I don't know about all that. I just know I've been waiting by this bridge in Dallas for JFK Jr. to be resurrected for weeks now and it sure is getting cold at night.

The favorite terms used by flerfs these days to explain what they claim is only an apparent curvature are "refraction" and "relative density".

The chemtrails have clearly altered your brain chemistry. You just can't understand the genius of flat earth theory.

I can agree with that. I do love the smell of chemtrails in the morning.

Flerfs* typically get amped up easily, so I will conduct myself accordingly. After all my intent is to generate a positive discussion.

* "flerf" is an abbreviation of "flat Earff", which is how YouTuber Craig, AKA Fight The Flat Earth pronounce "Flat Earth". It undermines their attempt at legitimacy, so naturally it's been adopted by most other humorous pseudoscience debunkers.
