Pictures that forced us to take a look up close

Every now and then you come across a picture that makes you stop and look again because you thought you saw something hiding in the background.

Here are a few pictures that really made us stop and look closely at what we were looking at.

Autobots Roll Out!

This person stopped and needed to look again when they were taking a drink of their water bottle.

It looks like Optimus Prime is ready to give an inspirational speech on how to beat the Decepticons.

Lemon Or Sprite Logo?

This lemon was forgotten about in the back of someone’s fridge.

They thought that it might be the original inspiration for the logo of Sprite. Since we saw it we think that it is definitely a possibility!

Breaking Into The Housing Market

This person made a post on social media about being excited to finally have been able to purchase a home.

While you may be excited for them, a closer look will reveal that it was just a joke.

Trench Coat Coverup?

We are having a hard time trying to decide if this person is actually a couple of kids on each other’s shoulders under the trench coat.

It’s probably just one person but it’s hard to unsee.

Waterfall Nose

This man really had to blow his nose but did not have a tissue with them.

That’s not actually what is happening and it’s more just the man having a little fun with the waterfall in the background.

Dog Log

How many times did you look at the picture thinking this dog had been cut in half?

The owner noticed that they had the perfect angle for a picture that would be sure to play with people’s minds.

Same Outfit, Different Person

What are the chances that there would be two people walking down he street wearing virtually the same outfit?

These two even have the same colored red bag that they’re holding.

Clifford’s Long Lost Sibling?

It appears as though there is a large dog running towards the camera, leaving the small people in the dust.

Camera angles play some pretty interesting tricks on the eyes!

Are Those Pants?

This Starbucks customer was taken back for a second when they looked up to see their drink being made.

Was the barista wearing any pants? It turns out they were and just looked a lot like bare legs.

Enjoying The Sun

This man looks to be enjoying the warm weather a little too much at first glance.

Actually, he is wearing a bathing suit and it’s just the woman’s legs that make him look naked.

Foxy Fence

You might think that this is just a normal wooden plank fence.

A closer look will reveal that there are two foxy creatures that are trying to get into the yard.

Baby Flavored?

Goldfish have been a common snack on store shelves for years now.

While that may be true, have you ever tried the “baby” flavored ones? The company is branching out in some interesting ways.

Zeebra Legs

Has this young man come across an extremely rare part-woman, part-zebra?

This picture is just at a strange angle that looks like the woman is a part of the zebra when really she’s just sitting on it.

Floating Ship

Look up in the sky. It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s… a floating ship?

With the water as blue as the sky that is exactly what it looks like even though it’s just off in the distance.

Bubble Dog

Has this dog somehow found its way into a bubble and floating across the front lawn?

That would have to be a very strong bubble for that to be able to happen!

Don’t Skip Arm Day

Usually people tend to skip leg day in the gym and work more on their upper body.

The man on the right looks like he has skipped one too many arm workouts and has a very small arm.

The Smell Of Fresh Hair

Don’t you just love the smell of fresh hair in the morning?

We are hoping that the woman in the sunglasses has washed their hair recently or that this is just a creative angle.

Floating Package

How do you load a package onto a skid if it is floating in place?

This package looks to be floating and we really can’t see how or why that is!

Pillow Toes

This woman is sitting back and relaxing on the couch with what looks to be her feet up.

Those, however, are not her feet and are just the tassels of the pillow!

When The Plants Fight Back

This flower looks like it has teeth or something. Audrey 2, is that you?

Maybe this is Audrey 3. It’s not quite a Venus fly trap but it’s close enough.

The Spirit Of Howard Stern

For some unexplainable reason, the shadow cast b this metal basket looks exactly like a ghostly impression of Howard Stern.

The resemblance is seriously uncanny. If you told me that this was actually Howard Stern’s soul, I would believe you.

Is That A Ghost?

This person managed to capture an actual ghost on camera. Well, it may not be a ghost.

It could just be some rainbow lens flare. It does look rather divine.

A Forest Of Ice Crystals

This person found a sheet of ice with a bunch of elevated ice crystals on it.

This frozen sheet of water looks just like some kind of crystal forest. It’s pretty magical.

A Grinch Cat

The reflection in this window lined up perfectly with this cat’s face.

Now he kind of looks like the cat who stole Christmas. I bet he’s knocked over so many Christmas trees.

A Baby In The Paint Bottle

This person was just minding her own business, making a painting with a tube of red paint.

Then, somehow, she managed to squeeze a baby’s face out of the tube

Where Is His Nose?

This cat actually does have a nose. You can see it if you look really closely.

His nose is just the same color as the rest of his face so it blends in really well.

How Many Cats?

Are there two pet cats in this picture or are there four?

You might think at first that there are four, but the correct answer is two. This person just has cat slippers that match their two cats!

Light Pillars On A Snowy Day

Normally you can’t see beams of light shooting straight up in the air, but on this particular day, it was snowing quite heavily.

So the light from the city was able to bounce off of the falling ice crystals.
