I like this kind of pictures. Someone should come up with a name for them. Here’s few similar kind of ones:
These broke my brain for longer than I’d like to admit.
Maybe split-view pictures?
Or Fractional composition scenes?
This calms me
Funny, I am getting uncomfortable looking at the picture. It looks so unnatural. 😬
As a Dutch guy, it is hilarious to read how many people thought this was fake. I’ve seen these types of roads so many times. Very common in The Netherlands. Discussions made me appreciate the work all our tree carers do to maintain safe roads.
Still, a beautiful and smart picture.
Where was this?
The Netherlands. I couldn’t tell you which canal but the river boat cruises go down this.
Looks like Amsterdam Rijnkanaal in the province Utrecht
It is, come by here pretty often - and can guarantee it is not AI - but just a good picture of our super systematic infrastructure
More specifically I’m almost certain it’s the bit after you pass Weesp.
Yes, I remember cycling home along this canal a few years ago.
I drive it regularly when I visit a friend, it’s so funny watching all the comments calling it fake. Well I guess it’s fake in the sense that most Dutch landscapes are “fake” (man-made).
Photoshop
Nope. It’s real.
No way. It’s ai.
The lane markers make no sense. The lines are too perfect in the clouds and flowers.
I doubt its ai - I don’t think AI would get that guardrail that consistent. It has that little hole in the exact same place over every bar, even the distant ones. Although, why is the guardrail double sided when there’s no road on the other side?
Nevermind, I found it on google maps.
Although, why is the guardrail double sided when there’s no road on the other side?
The other side is a shipping canal that gets a lot of traffic, so I suppose it counts as a “lane of traffic”.
As a Dutch person, nah. Double sided guardrails are the norm in here. It’s relatively uncommon to find a guard rail that’s single sided.
Suppose I’ve never noticed!
