"Distances are very deceptive."
That is the example given in my thesaurus for the word deceptive. This picture provides proof for that phrase.
I'm standing on the sidewalk on McCray Street by Premiere Cinema, about a mile away from the cannery. See the smoke in the photo? That's coming from the cannery. Doesn't the smoke look like it is much further away than a mile?
That mountain peak at the far right of the photo. That's Fremont Peak, about 19 miles away. Doesn't it look so much nearer?
the mountains looks closer than 19 miles, that's for sure. the smoke looks like it's on the next block. i agree.
