that was my first impression, but perspective distortion means distortion in all the photo parallel lines. Here only the humans and a small part of the wall near the ponytail are distorted. All lines in the table look strangely right.

It seems like a sort of bubble distortion field was aimed at modify only the arm, face and ear proportions of Mr Mackey for some reason. The ear of the other man may had been altered also, but I could we wrong here.

The man at the left lacks a finger also, but that could be a past accident.

All photos look very post-processed. The real work at the sea and life in a boat does not look like this at all.
