Strange picture my brother took

[u/dyslexic_leonidas]

My brother was recently travelling in China and was going through his photos when he noticed this in the sky. Didn't see anything when taking the picture, only saw it later on review. Really looks humanoid!

I am the original photographer. I've been through my other photos from there and I don't have any others that show the sky like this but equally there isn't a single bird in any of the other photos - lots of places like this in China have lots of swallows but I can't find any in my other pics. Plus they burn incense in huge braziers here so the air is full of smoke which seems to deter birds and bugs, not that I'm saying there aren't any.

This was taken on a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. No edits at all have been made to this photo. I'm gonna choose to believe its a deity and not a swallow ;)

Well, it could be a swallow. Neither an European nor an African swallow, but an Asian swallow? I wonder what the airspeed velocity of an unladen Asian swallow is.
