Thank you, Mr Tooth sir.

Ok, I was looking for interesting locations and found this unique geological feature.
See if you can provide the name and location.

I do believe that someone is using a really wide angle lens.

USA - Yes.

Focal length - Certainly not a $160,000 lens ;)
Can't say for sure as it's not my photo and EXIF Data on the original is missing. My guess would be no, not extreme, as there doesn't appear to be much distortion. Probably no shorter then 28mm, but that's my opinion.

Man made - It's a real geological feature but there was some unintentional assistance with the initial formation. As far as I can tell, the photo is real and not 'shopped. I did check other images from other sources and the appearance is the same.

I think the builder was the Son of a US Senator and an actor and playwright.
