A bassetter? Can’t say it the other way… Setterset is just wrong.

Though… maybe it’s a cockerset. Cock-a-bass…

Springerset… I give up.

Nice doggie, anyway. His name is Spot.

My first Sheltie was named Freckles. (Freckles R-Love Dazzler of Pow, to be exact. No, I did not name the poor pooch.)

Some of them just seem so pat, you’d think they must be made up… But I’ve read a few before, and I just looked up a couple of the most fake-sounding.

Not going to do any more… but so far, they’ve all been at least allegedly true.

LOL… I was too sleepy last night to recognize it.

Hopefully not related.
Looks similar, but definitely not a Crinoid…. and its fossil record is … hmm… I’d say less than 50 years old, instead of 347 million. 🙂

The only fossil on display in my house is in the mirror in the bathroom.

Hey, don’t mock him…. he’s working so hard at turning the bridal couple into giants.

Why, I’m not sure.

Maybe just to get the whole castle into the shot?

I would have. Love the shot. Remember the “Winged Figures of the Republic” sculptures at Hoover Dam? I once laid down on my back in front of them to take a photo. People walking around me thought I was an idiot, but whatever.

But upon further reflection… no pun intended… (which of course is a lie…)

There’s no way that whole refection appears naturally in that little pond so far away.

It doesn’t take trigonometry to see that the base wouldn’t be reflected at all… A reflection has much the same reach as a shadow… you’d maybe see the tippy top.

I’d bet it was at least partially added in post-production, a computer-aided effect.

Way.
Telephoto lens.
Try it with a hand-held mirror (like the screen of your tablet/phone).
I think I’ve found the/a site where nighthawks gets those photos.
I won’t spoil it; there’s some amazing stuff to come.
Just one example:comment image

Yes, I see you… but certainly not in 3 seconds. That’s ridiculous. I don’t think anybody can even focus their eyes on a picture in 3 seconds… maybe a12-year-old.

As I’ve said before, they only put times on these puzzles as clickbait. Impossible times, because they love comments and complaint, to build traffic. Don’t worry about the times.

Meanwhile, once you find him(her?) you’ll absolutely wonder why you didn’t at first.

Solution soon… I need dinner first!

But search first, or honestly, you’ll be thinking “I coulda found that!”

Suggestion … just something that worked for me: Relax.

Relax your eyes and don’t try too hard. Let it just be a picture, not a puzzle, and you may see something in it.

I wonder how much obvious impact even a great writer could have on a co-writen screenplay, based on someone else’s novel… especially a very well-known and often-quoted novel… and for a film directed by another strong personality.

It seems to me that being in that situation would be frustrating for a writer.

Hmmm….how long has the fleet been at sea?

I had a boss who was in the navy. They told awful jokes about the submariners. One was something like “the submarine service is the only job in the world where 100 men go out to sea and 50 couples return.”

The caption makes it sound like the street is called Hill Street, but it’s actually Kearny Street, in North Beach.

There no snow, so I’ve heard that sidewalk speeding was a fad in the 1950s, but it was made illegal.

I’ve driven on Kearny. It was paved better by then, but not something I wanted to repeat. Some people can be totally nonchalant on those hills… I’ve only done it a few times, can’t make that claim.

The really fun part is when you get to the end of the block, going up, with an automatic transmission, and can’t figure out how to brake without taking your foot off the gas and sliding backwards.

In fact, before I ever tried it, Bill Cosby had done a funny routine about it (back when he was still funny)… but I didn’t really get it till I faced that situation.

Those sidewalks don’t look fit for sledding!. The street on the other hand, looks like it could give one heck of a ride.

This is…
Robert Redford and Gladys Cooper

In….
“Nothing in the Dark” a 1962 episode of The Twilight Zone.

Redford plays a gentle version of Death, who visits a reclusive, elderly woman played by Cooper.

When you buy a used car, it helps to be able to spot any flaws…
Spotting the ones at this dealership may help sharpen your skills.

But if you don’t spot all ten, as far as I know, you’re still doing a good job. I can’t give you, as yet, the official word…
But I think it will be that there are only NINE.

Nighthawks and I had communicated about a couple of differences, and just today, he kindly revised the puzzle a bit. But it originally had nine, and I got it too late for more email before posting time.

I’ve looked again…. and of course I could be wrong, but I didn’t find a new one added. Maybe there is one, and one of you will find it, or maybe things just got confusing going back and forth. Keeping track is harder than you’d think. .. but meanwhile my solution contains nine differences.

See how many you find…

and here are my nine…

I got 8 of the 9 you showed, and all the same as yours. This one was a tuffy, it even took me a while to actually see the difference of last one, diabolical!
I do have my doubts about there being a tenth difference…
Thanks Susan!

I have only found six, and think I did well to find even those few.

The three I missed
are the hem of Clara’s dress, the very slight change in Cleo’s collar, and the headlight on the foreground car.
The latter is, if indeed it exists, so small that I still can’t see it. Any tenth diff is out of the question as far as I am concerned.

the reflection on the headlight.

Believe it or not, it was originally even harder.

As for that last one…

Take a look at the pattern of light and dark reflected in the centers.

And yeah, in the absence of clarification from the boss… I’m still sticking with 9.
