If I were taking the photo, I would use corrective software to level the horizon, much the same as they use for upshots of tall buildings, so as to avoid the viewers getting vertigo.
Could also be a panoramic camera shot.
I don’t know the math but there needs to be quite a large expanse of horizon to be able to see the curvature of the earth.
Can’t say from my own experience as my world is one mountain after another and I have never been able to see more than a few miles of uninterrupted horizon.
Everything here is lumpy.

...corrective software to level the horizon
I've been back and forth over the bridge this photo was taken from since I was a child.
What "corrective software" should I use on my own eyes?
