Is it me, or did this plane gain weight?

[Long Time Gone]

The new paint job for UPS makes the front of the plane look like it hung out at Krispy Kreme for a year. Now I know why my wife is so picky about clothes.....

I think it is due to a number of factors. First, they could bring the brown paint forward farther. But, I think it was the angle/distance that the photo was taken. Normally most photos of airplanes are taken with telephoto lenses, which collapse depth. It appears that he didn't use a telephoto (zoom) lense and so the depth is more exaggerated than usual, so combine that with the angle it was taken at and the sharp contrasting paintschem and woila, a 727 with a Krispy Kreme addiction.
