Explanation:
How could that city be upside-down?
The city,
Chicago,
was actually perfectly right-side up.
The long shadows it projected onto nearby Lake Michigan near sunset, however,
when seen in reflection, made the buildings appear inverted.
This fascinating, puzzling, yet beautiful
image was captured by a
photographer in 2014 on an airplane on
approach to
Chicago's
O'Hare International
Airport.
The Sun
can be seen both above and below the cloud deck, with the latter reflected in the
calm lake.
As a bonus, if you look really closely -- and this is quite a challenge --
you
can find another airplane in the image, likely also on approach to the same
airport.
