It could be PhotoShopped, or it could be real...
 
 

 Here is a great optical illusion photo taken of a Lufthansa 747-400
and a United 757-200 that were on simultaneous approaches to
runways 28L and 28R at San Francisco (SFO).

The separation requirement for flying parallel and simultaneous
approaches is 225 meters (about 750 feet).

These two aircraft are at a safe distance for the approaches they
are each flying. Due to the 747 being three times larger than the
757, and being slightly behind, it gives this incredible optical illusion.
