I think you are commenting on the compression effect -- the result of using a long lens for this shot. This is the same effect you see, for example, in movies to show NYC or Hong Kong with masses of people and neon signs all stacked together, or to make the setting African sun look enormous on the horizon behind an apparently normal-sized tree. In this case, I'm sure it wasn't intentional or for aesthetics, but because the photog was a ways away and had to capture this with a long lens.
