Flat Earth Theory / Re: How does the sun get bigger if it's setting because of "laws of perspective"

My idea is similar to morgan’s. Only problem is a convex atmospheric lens with object inside the focal length will create a virtual image even bigger than itself. So the sun will become massive as it moves away as projected on the sky screen. If the sun is outside the focal length, the real image will be tiny as seen by the eye.
A better explanation, using the mirror reflection example, is a black sun reflected on a concave mirror inside the focal length of the earth. See #45. A magnified virtual image (or reflection) will be seen behind the sky as proportional even in motion. Just a theory: please someone do the experiment.
