“#Bidens tower over Carters in photo during visit to Georgia<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

President Biden and first lady Jill Biden posed for a photo with former President Jimmy Carter and former first lady Rosalyn Carter during their visit to Georgia last week \u2014 but the angle of the photo makes it look like the Bidens are towering over miniature Carters.<\/p>\n

The Carter Center released the photo<\/a> of the two presidents and the two first ladies that was taken during the Bidens\u2019 visit to the Carters\u2019 home in Plains, Ga., last Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u200b\u201d\u200bWe\u2019re pleased to share this wonderful photo from the\u200b \u200b@POTUS\u200b \u200band\u200b \u200b@FLOTUS\u200b \u200bvisit to see the Carters in Plains, Ga.! Thank you President and Mrs. Biden!\u200b,\u201d the Center wrote in a tweet Monday night.<\/p>\n

\u200bIt was the first time the two couples met since Biden became president, as the Carters did not attend January\u2019s inauguration because of the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n

The former president is 96, and Rosalyn Carter is 93.<\/p>\n

But the picture of the meeting of the two presidents caught the eye of critics because it was taken with a wide angle lens, distorting the frame. <\/p>\n

The president appeared at least twice the size of Rosalyn Carter as he kneeled next to her while she sat in a chair.<\/p>\n

The same for Jill Biden and the former president.<\/p>\n

She is shown kneeling alongside his chair, holding his hand, but she looms large over him.\u200b<\/p>\n

Twitter<\/a> users were left baffled by the size discrepancy, wondering whether it was photo-shopped or taken in a tiny house.\u200b<\/p>\n

\u201cIn which we learn that Joe and Jill Biden could both play center in the NBA,\u201d wrote conservative commentator Ben Shapiro<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been staring at this photo for three hours. I\u2019ve got to go to bed. Back at it tomorrow,\u201d wrote Joe Seiders<\/a>. <\/p>\n

\u201cFiling under \u2018why we don\u2019t use the ultrawide lens indoors\u2019,\u201d journalist Jared Holt wrote<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe voted for Biden because he\u2019s a decent human being with sound policies but also because he and Jill are giants who will crush you if you make them angry\u200b,\u201d posted sister celluloid.<\/a><\/p>\n

Another suggested it was the photographer\u2019s fault.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy guess is the room was very small, so they had to use a wide angle lens to get everyone in. The choice of lens was correct, but someone should\u2019ve fixed the distortion in photoshop before releasing it,\u201d wrote user DemSwag<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u200bThe Bidens visited the Carters last Thursday on Biden\u2019s 100th day in the White House.<\/p>\n

The media that travel<\/a>s with Biden did not go inside of the Carters\u2019 home.<\/p>\n

Rosalyn said goodbye to the presidential couple as they left the home, while her husband remained inside.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was great to see President Carter,\u201d Biden said after the meeting. \u201cIt reminded me that I was the first person to endorse him outside of Georgia. And we sat and talked about the old days and he introduced me to a friend of his, a reverend he wanted me to get to know, and Rosalyn was great, too. We just had a nice time. We\u2019re old friends.\u201d\u200b<\/p>\n

The president and Jimmy Carter relationship dates back to the 1970s.<\/p>\n

Biden began serving in the US Senate from Delaware in 1973, three years before Carter was inaugurated.\u200b<\/p>\n
