There's definitely something going on. It also looks mirrored top/bottom

Probably. But I've also seen planes flying awfully low over downtown San Jose.

Kai Tak Airport

A plane flying very close to ground buildings

I mean, this is from like last century and probably not where this post's photo is taken, but low flying planes exist. Not saying this isn't generated though.

People have been doing this Photoshop since before Photoshop existed probably. Adding a plane is a true crowd favourite. This one is egregious though.

Oshii’s 1995 Ghost in the Shell movie recreated this visage for the fictional city it is set in that was modeled after Hong Kong.

I've seen less suspicious versions of this concept which turned out to be composites.
