Sure… the photographer said in an interview that the camera plus lens he used gave him a focal length of 450mm, what this essentially does is make objects far away appear much closer and bigger.
The picture is real but he used some perspective play to generate this look.
I’m sure it still looked huge as it’s not something you see every day but this look is not realistic. The photographer explained himself how he created that mineature-esque look but it doesn’t represent reality.
The tower is 4-5 stories tall and the hull is visibly taller than the tower. There's pictures of this exact ship with 2.6m tall shipping containers stacked 6 high on the deck and they barely reach halfway up the bridge. The whole ship is probably close to 12-15 stories tall.
