I don’t think that is a sight I would want to see live, at night, in a jungle.

I’ve heard of shooting a birdie on the golf course, but what happened here? Bird hit by a ball? Bird angry at the golfer for some reason?

Well, if a birdie fell out of the sky, I hope it wasn’t cos somebody shot a hole in one!

Bad enough they use clubs to get one.

Another view from (and also a link) to this same incedent) from the “People” magazine article.

Kind of an interesting pose to ask of a model.

It’s possible he didn’t use a live model, or that he took a bunch of continuous action photos, and chose random bits that he liked to draw.

Lots of painter use photos for reference.
I sat with the mom of an artist a few times. Her work in progress was covered with photos.

But Google says

that this is…
Room 222

And that

they are….
Denise Nicholas, Karen Valentine, Michael Constantine and Lloyd Haynes …

Two of whom I possibly should have recognized.

The Caped Coleopteran…

It’s that green thing his cape?

It’s attached wrong and blowing/folding incorrectly, but it doesn’t seem to be part of the other guy either.

Someone in a hat and a big overcoat wouldn’t have a cape.

Is that related?

I don’t know the two comic characters.

Yours looks familiar from elsewhere but I can’t place him.

That’s why I tried to cover my butt on that one…The wrong guy is wearing the cape. (But the alliteration didn’t work that way.)

No circles, but I do get a 3-D effect…

SusanSunshine

Reply to  JP Steve

Could your eyes be relaxing and overlapping the images a bit?

That creates 3D, like a stereoscopic image.

BTW I answered you a few days ago about all that, in a conversation about a 3D comic book, but I don’t think you ever saw it.

This makes no sense.

Does anybody see circles? I certainly can’t.

If you do, I’ll stand corrected.

….

It’s very strangely written…. I’m thinking the text is AI generated.

E.g. We don’t need the sentence about numerous squares; “it” doesn’t start to modify its own pattern. You don’t stare “repeatedly”, but continuously… and what “they” is perceiving anything?

“If you stare long enough at this pattern of squares, they’ll seem to turn into circles”

But AFAIK… they won’t.

Yes, I can see circles but only because I read Cleo & Company every morning over coffee – and my eyes are still blurry then.

Explanation
They’re between the blocks – the sides of the blocks form a circle if you lose your focus.

Me too, I guess… They don’t look very apple-y but they’re not birds.

I don’t consider that a spoiler… apologies If anyone else does.

I thought it would look silly in a spoiler box.
Then again, no one would believe I’m anti-silly.

Are these the two you spotted (it’s the official answer / you’re supposed to do it it 10 seconds)?

Yes.

I uploaded a solution to Postimage last night but I fell asleep before I finished commenting here.

It’s the same.

Those times given, though, mean nothing…. I always say to ignore them…
Nobody could do this in 10 seconds… It takes longer just to scan a few rows with your eyes.

The times are only click bait to get people to look.

5 sites publish the same puzzle, with different times supposedly allotted, and I doubt anybody ever really timed it.

Me neither, but I did a quick search and found her wiki page:

Laraine Day (born La Raine Johnson, October 13, 1920 – November 10, 2007) was an American actress, radio and television commentator, and former Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) contract star. As a leading lady, she was paired opposite major film stars, including Robert Mitchum, Lana Turner, Cary Grant, Ronald Reagan, Kirk Douglas, and John Wayne. In addition to her numerous film and television roles, she acted on stage, conducted her own radio and television shows, and wrote two books. Because of her marriage to Leo Durocher and her involvement with his baseball career, she was known as the “First Lady of Baseball”. Her best-known films include Foreign Correspondent; My Son, My Son; Journey for Margaret; Mr. Lucky; The Locket; and the Dr. Kildare series.”

Or a Harbor Freight printed add. This is their website: Harbor Freight | Whatever You Do, Do It For Less and there’s a picture of their printed ad in the upper right.

First thing I thought of… though I have no interest in doing the math for a price comparison of products I’m not looking for, from a place i can’t shop anyway.

I do occasionally like to look at Grainger ads, cos they have interesting small, specialized tools… Still not going to buy any though.

You should have posted an ad for consumer electronics if you wanted an eye-popping example of overpriced crap! AFAIK the average Englishman still can’t afford to buy a printer!
