Is it the effect of a telephotos lens or not?

I don't understand. Am I being thick?

That will have to be my word for the day! I never knew a snag was a sausage! Sorry, perhaps I should have put a less cryptic title.

Reminds me of a story a friend told me when he worked in construction as a holiday job whilst a student at Sussex University.
They has to knock down a recently built wall to get the cement mixer out.

Brighter people than I have pointed out this is a Photoshop job. The bottom-right bollard has certainly been digitally copied from elsewhere, since it's (a) at the wrong angle, (b) is off the center of its square, (c) is slightly foreshortened (perspective is wrong), and, most revealing of all, (d) has an anti-aliasing haze around the base where the Photoshopper has tried to disguise their tracks.

Good fun though!

It is not on a square actually.
