It's a great picture that just don't fly! My guess is that the picture of the aircraft is a cut an paste from a picture that was taken from the airboss's position on the island, looking down on the deck. From that position, an aircraft that had just landed could be passing over the aft catapault position, which would explain the steam venting over the left wing and from under the rear of the right wing. Also, from the angle of his turn and his position just aft of the LSO's platform, his turn is going to take him across the deck, which his right wingtip is not going to clear. But this is all just my humble opinion and I still think it's a great picture.
