whats wrong with this picture

Postby pingu » Wed Feb 22, 2017 10:08 am

ive been trying (rather unsucessfully) to match the picture below to the same image on google earth.
im obviously doing something wrong as i just cant get the distances between the buildings (still standing) and the angles right.

could some one have a look and maybe point out what blatant error im making?
i can get the white building on the left to the right angle and distance but it doesnt match up with the fancy gable end on the right or the steeple in the top right, leading me top think this picture is distorted in some way... or (more than likely) im just doing something baiscally wrong

any help would be appreciated thanks

Google earth images are usually a composite of pictures all from different angles so you will be off to a bad start using that as a reliable now picture.

i thought it was the pic above that might have been skewed a bit but that explains it.
