In a car, yes, you'd hardly notice. By foot, not a chance.

The photograph is taken with a large zoom lens to exagggerate the perspective / slope. This is a truer picture:

It's similar to this photo in which the ship appears to be foundering; however, it was taken from a distance with a telephoto lens: http://i61.tinypic.com/2469w5k.jpg
