The amazing and cool photo thread

[GregTheStig]

Also consider that all those shots are closeups, more or less. The closer you got the easier it would be to spot them but from a distance they would blend in extremely well.

It should also be noted that the goal is not to hide from humans, but from the less developed eyes of certain animals.

That said, that is not proper safety orange.

I'm sure that the point of those pictures was advertising, and they WANTED people to understand what they looked like. Wouldn't take much to hide them, if they were REALLY trying.

Still awesome.

Where are the photos?...

I don't know if anyone else will find this "cool" or "amazing" but, I've been on planet for a while and never seen the like.

Anybody care to hazard a guess what that is?

Tortoise shell?

Tortoise shell?

Sorry, no.

 

[R5]

Sorry, no.

Mince pie tray?

 

[Dragonwhisky]

Mince pie tray?

Nope. You're welcome to try again though.

 

[TB]

You could just tell us.

 

[Dragonwhisky]

Where would the fun in that be?







Ok. Does this make it easier to determine?

 

[Flex0r]

A can of paint?

 

[Beerz]

CG rendering of something?

A can of paint?

Yea, I'm with you on this one. Looks like a dried up can of gold paint. It might also be separated. Sort of looks like there's two levels in the can.

Alright. @TB , you win.

There was no CG and no photo shop stuff done to any of my pics. My editing skills are practically nil in this area.

The oil was fresh out of that jug. I've watched oil heat up for deep frying more than a few times over the last 20 years, in that pot, and not once seen it make a pattern like the one in my previous posts.

Oookaaaayyyyyyyy......

Neat how some things do that sometimes.

Air flash photograph of a revolver being fired; the flash and camera were initiated by the sound of the trigger thanks to a microphone.

It's amazing with as violent a reaction as that appears to be that more firearms don't blow up.

On Mythbusters they once showed what happens to a hand (made of chicken) when you place it over the chamber when firing, they did use a big ass gun. I think it was some sort of hunting gun, .50.

I vaguely remember seeing that.

I vaguely remember seeing that.

Yup, me too. Although it was chicken meat, the images of what happened were engraved in my brain forever.

 

[TRLWNC7396]

I remember that clearly. It WAS a 50 Cal, and the exhaust literally took half of the hand off.....
