This is a fake![edit]

It is a rough photomontage, not a genuine photo. Why pool's perimeter is not visible? Look, how windows (with something like green shrubs beyond) descend exactly to the level of water, without an inch of something which could separate a water from windows' glass. Was the pool filled to the highest possible level such that walls become almost entirely submerged? Implausible, because usually there are sink holes protecting from overflow. Note that the boundary of Snell's window must correspond to a horizontal plane in aerial view, i.e. to the level of water. Incnis Mrsi (talk) 15:26, 24 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Without actually going to the building where the photo was taken, I'd say calling it a fake is being a bit presumptuous. We know nothing about the pool or the building housing it. Hellbus (talk) 00:29, 7 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
