This has already been explained as glitches due to multiple pictures being electronically joined together. You can find this all over google maps.

Sure but why would a random park goer publish such photo's. Are you assuming they are his children?

I guess he thought it was funny.

LW has posted another 8 photos on Google Maps recently which are also worth a good look over.

5 photos are of a courtyard in a block of flats at 1225 Fairmont St NW Washington.

The flats aligns with James Alefantis’s Pegasus Museum and Trolley Park. http://imgur.com/LWbOF3D

Following are the 5 photos LW has posted to Google Maps of the Courtyard. Please help examine these photos. I would appreciate thoughts on why you think he’d bother posting 5 sphere photos of the exact same courtyard location – all different in their distorted imagery and with thousands of views.

Bike on the balcony, blurred top of staircase and broken railing and strange hosing – plants look dead. http://imgur.com/kzJOvDK

Why show a lock on a door? a) http://imgur.com/6IaOEuV Then a broken lock on the same door? b) http://imgur.com/QRDMeSv

Are you sure that these are just glitches in the system? Again why publish them then? Could this person be an ace Google Maps photographer?
