Alex! You of all people I am surprised that you picked this up without investigating it.
This is not a photo of planes taking off and the artist has never claimed that it was.
Here is a detail of the photo from his gallery show: http://exhibitions.connydietzscholdgallery.com/Conny_Dietzschold_Gallery_Exhibitions/Photos_Ryu,_Ho-Yeol_%28Korea%29_-_30_JULY_31_AUGUST_2011.html#20
This is a work of art created with model planes and photo-montage techniques, now it's a meme.

This is a mason's tool with the broad side used for depositing and spreading the mortar. The spike is for striking bricks and breaking them to make half bricks and other odd sized pieces when needed, and the notched corner was used to even out the mortar and create a smooth slightly indented mortar surface between the bricks on the outward facing surface.
Though this tool was versatile, I think it was eventually decided by more thoughtful (and rational) masons that the hazard of poking one's self in the eye with the spike ultimately outweighed its potential usefulness and subsequently hammers became the tool of choice for making brick fragments.
I would like a 2XX sized ‘Discombobulate – How Many Daleks Does It Take To Change a Light Bulb?’ t-shirt in charcoal.

Judging from the object's presence on what looks like a Brooks bicycle seat workman's bench I think this is some sort of object used in the hand fabrication of the famous bicycle saddles.
The position and apparent diameter of the center pole tells me that it stands in for the seat post in some fabricating step; possibly the fabricator holds this ball between his knees and having attached the metal seat clamp and rails elements of the saddle. He then glues the leather saddle cut-out in place, manipulates and trims the leather upper and drives in the brads while it's clamped to the ball. It is round so that he can rotate it in his lap.
That's what I think anyway.
I would like a 2XX sized 'Discombobulate - How Many Daleks Does It Take To Change a Light Bulb?' t-shirt in charcoal and would gladly pay the extra two dollars for the voluminous size. If you think that makes me too fat to ride a bike then you would be wrong.
