Can you see him too?
« on: January 06, 2010, 08:29:54 »
To brighten up a bitterly cold day, I was looking through some of my 'summer-y' snaps and came across this one, taken in August when my fish were spawning.

I hadn't noticed him before, but there's a chap with long hair and a flowing beard looking back at me from the ripples!

Can you see him too - or has the cold addled my brain???

I think there's more than one naiad lurking in there! ;)

I can't see the man, but I can see this strange-looking creature in the bottom right-hand corner.  Looks a bit like a rabbitdog.

LOL, I keep looking at it and there are noses all over the place now! Still can't see your bloke though.

If that is your reflection, it must be so awkward for you to go out, or do you do your shopping at night when there is nobody about ;)

Funny you should say that ACE - the chap reminded me of you. But I wasn't rude enough to say so.  :P

I think I can see him now.  Has he got a stretched rabbit with its mouth wide open just to the right of him?  And Casper the ghost to the right of the  rabbit?
Or should I go and lie down in a darkened room?

Poor Squash64!  :-*

Your 'stretched rabbit' is, of course, a blind duck with a dislocated jaw - and as for Caspar: well, he's just be a figment of your imagination, I'm afraid.

Before you take to your bed, here's a close up of the chap himself - he's slap in the middle - you can't miss him!!


Hasn't he got a nice nose and a lovely, crooked smile?

(I wonder why such a nice-looking fella ever reminded me of ACE?)

Hope you're feeling better soon, Squash64. xxx

Which nose do you mean?  I can see two - no, hang on a minute, the thing I thought was a second nose is in fact a woman's head with blonde hair.


I'd better go to bed now.........
