Sometimes, what the eye sees (or more appropriately, what the camera catches) is not what actually exists.
The following are two shots that I noticed while browsing some pics from last fall.
These were both taken on the same day (Sept. 11, 2010) at Stone Church in Dover NY. Something we've noticed on our hikes is that here and there, people have constructed stone structures. We've seen these in many different places. Must be some kind of fad or something. Some are small and simple; just some rocks piled on top of each other, like this one:
The above structure was about 12 inches high.
Others are larger and more complex, like this one.
Almost big enough to walk through, or so it seems. This structure was in reality only about 18 inches in height, and maybe 3 feet in width, but the perspective of the shot makes it look much larger. Tricky, eh?
Finally, this one is just a very weird reflection I happened to catch in some flowing water.
Kindy trippy; it looks to me like an alien wearing sunglasses.
It was pure luck, because the image only appeared when viewed at a very distinct angle. If I had walked by it from a different approach, I wouldn't have seen it.
