gearthblog.com — A cool example of high resolution aerial photos sometimes found in Google Earth. You can actually see the guy (and his shadow) flying his model plane which is about 190 meters NNE of him. Links to see it in Google Earth or Google Local/Maps is in this story and screenshots.

This is a fake. Zoom out and look around the object, the buildings are just as big as the "person."

No, this is not a fake. You can measure the photo in Google Earth and they are the right size. Not only that, but recently someone posted at Google Sightseeing that the photo happens to be of him and his Dad flying their plane, and their car is parked just south of them.
