  • That lady with the long black hair seated by the huge stone is Cher. I think that's the cover art of her album Heart of Stone, which was released in the early 90s. If I'm not mistaken, that album is where the single "Turn Back Time" is from.
    Read more

  • The third image without credit is from Jonathon Bowser: http://www.jonathonart.com/nati4.html
    Read more

  • It is Heart of Stone, and interestingly enough, that album cover was recalled because it was thought to be too morbid. That's the one I have, though, and I've never seen what they replaced it with.
    Read more

  • I grew up around that Cher album (yes it is Heart of Stone) and had never noticed the illusion until now... very groovy
    Read more

  • the two paintings (flowers and leaves forming a female face, birds forming a female face) come from the artist Octavio Ocampo. Great work! Keep it up! ;)

  • omg, i cant beleive it! the one where u have 2 find the F's..first i counted 3, then i read the answer..i counted again, found 4, and the 4th time, i saw 6, haha!!

    im such a blonde!!

  • Maybe, you will like this:
    http://bp1.blogger.com/_cxmptAPYR-s/Riuhmraat7I/AAAAAAAAAtM/DTXiwpnUC1g/s1600-h/Hantitle1.JPG

    Its from the beginning scene of the movie Hannibal and it's Hannibal Lecters face made out of pidgeons.
    Read more

  • Neat article.
    There is one f in that sentence. You meant how many are in the following sentence. You made a word illusion.
    Cool.
    Read more

  • I think that second painting credited to Jos de Mey is actually by Rene Magritte. He frequently used the juxtaposition of night and day in his landscapes, and the birdcage fellow appears in many of his paintings.
    Read more

  • oh, Did I see some Michael Jackson look alike in the graphic associated with the movie 'Alexander' ?
    its on the bottom-left of the big face.
    Read more

  • The cameraman needs a few lessons.
    I have motion sickness now.

  • That "asteroid" is in fact a meteor. :) Asteroids are large bodies smaller than a planet, located typically in the asteroid belt, meteoroids – smaller bodies, but still in space. Once they enter the atmosphere, they produce a ball of fire and this is called a "meteor".
    Read more

  • The meteor photo has been found to be the reflection of the sun off ice particles left by a airliner's engines. Here's another photo from about 10 kilometers away http://www.space.com/php/multimedia/imagedisplay/img_display.php?pic=031013_fireball_heywood_02,0.jpg
    Still looks spectacular though!
    Read more

  • The multi-coloured Beetles ("afterlife") were sold as such from the Mexican production line. They took 4 different-colour beetles and a small team just took the various parts off and assembled them on the other bodies just as they felt inspired that day. They then were sold as "clown"-version.
    Read more

  • please consider not using "[wiki]" if the link goes to wikipedia, as a "wiki" is the type of software in general that wikipedia and many other sites use. in that sense it is as useful as using "[blog]" or "[site]" or other generic terms.

    in short: "wiki" is no good abbreviation for "wikipedia".

  • will do!

  • That nazi aerosled is not nazi but Finnish. Finnish army was well prepared for snow operations and the use of the swastika in its armed forces comes earlier than the nazis http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swastika#Finland
    Read more

  • Karamazov is absolutely right. The aerosled is Finnish. The German Wehrmacht never used the swastika on their vehicles. Trucks, tanks kubelwagens, etc., always used the standard German Cross.

    Only in need, when there was aerial support, did they put a flag (with the swastika) over the tanks and trucks to signal them to Luftwaffe.

    The Finnish used a blue swastika over a white background, as can be perceived from the black-and-white photograph.

  • in case you were wondering, the three b&w pictures with the different variants of the one snow mobile , written in russian and translated as follows : passenger variant, business
    variant, and "sanitary" variant ( or sterile).


    great stuff. i wish that last tank/ship had been made.
