I know. Someone on FB posted an encounter recently with a theist co worker who doubted the size of the sun being bigger than the earth because it looked so small in the sky.
Of course it is going to look small in a mere photograph. But it is no different than knowing that an 18 wheeler truck is just as big off in the far distance approaching you on the opposite side of the highway. As soon as it gets next to you, you see how big it really is.
55 million light years away is going to make such a big object look small.
