Is it just me?

Can anyone else spot something rather unusual about this photo I took this morning. It is taken from Granton looking across to the Fife coast. It has been cropped and I have adjusted the contrast, but otherwise it has not been altered in any way.

No har on a summer's day? Actually that's probably not the right answer but hasn't the har been conspicuously absent this year?... thankfully. And aren't the nights fair drawing in?

Bob Jefferson · Post by **Bob Jefferson** » 30 Aug 2005, 20:47

It's so obvious. You must be able to see it!

foxy · Post by **foxy** » 30 Aug 2005, 20:50

Ahh so something you can see not something you can't....let me see...nope

Bob Jefferson · Post by **Bob Jefferson** » 30 Aug 2005, 20:58

No clues, and I'm not going to bed until someone else can see it. Then I'm going to start a bidding war between the Sunday Post and the Evening News.

I cannot see a thing (blinded by the squint horizon!)

Bob Jefferson · Post by **Bob Jefferson** » 30 Aug 2005, 21:20

Do I have to spell it out for you?

Obviously a job for teddygirl.

Can't see much diff (except the foreground!) from this shot toward the same area:

Or missing something from the Exxon plant?

Surely not the trees on the skyline - by strrrreeccching the imagination they just about spell L O V E??!!

Bob Jefferson · Post by **Bob Jefferson** » 30 Aug 2005, 21:42

Poppy - you can see it too!

The truth is that one of my colleagues spotted it one day. I looked for ages and couldn't see what he was talking about, and then it just sort of jumped out at me.

We are now looking out for other messages and I will report back in due course.

Just got in and am mad that I didn't get a chance to work that one out. Lets pray that Catz doesn't read this thread and resurrect his old game. I got ever so slightly hooked on that one.

Poppy - you can see it too!

I am now deeply worried about my mental state

But at least Bob can get to his beddy-byes!!! Night Night, Bob.

Bob Jefferson · Post by **Bob Jefferson** » 30 Aug 2005, 21:58

Bed? I can't go to bed now! It's a message Poppy - a message that only we can see! It must mean something. And Troy has come home. And Troy is a dog. And dog is god backwards. And...

Froglette!!!!!!!!!!! Get Bob his medication!!!! Quickly!!!!

teddygirl · Post by **teddygirl** » 30 Aug 2005, 22:06

Mm, a message of love between Bob and Poppy ? Another Porty and Epykat methinks.

Love is in the air.....

Ok that picture's ben doctored...the O looks like it has two eyes and a beak

Bob Jefferson · Post by **Bob Jefferson** » 30 Aug 2005, 22:13

Love is all around me
And so the feeling grows
It's written on the wind
It's everywhere I go

teddygirl · Post by **teddygirl** » 30 Aug 2005, 22:19

It looks a bit like a frog face in the O.
Does anyone else see little faces in the grains of wood. We have pine panelling in the toilet and I have an owl, a yorkshire terrier, a bear and a few other little friends that I constantly look for.

Bob Jefferson · Post by **Bob Jefferson** » 30 Aug 2005, 22:31

Clearly, there is a continuum of sanity-insanity and some of us are more bonkers than others. I only see messages. Some of you see ducks within messages and a whole menagerie in the wood panelling.

Frankly, I'd keep that to yourself if you want to be taken seriously on this forum.

Speaking of Christmas, I wonder if Bob could arrange for the trees to spell out a Festive greeting and we could have it made into cards..good time for miracles after all

Bob Jefferson · Post by **Bob Jefferson** » 12 Feb 2007, 14:48

From today's EN:

There's love on the horizon.. you can read it in the trees

Who says they will print any old rubbish?

So the EN won then?

Bob Jefferson · Post by **Bob Jefferson** » 12 Feb 2007, 15:02

Yes. There wasn't much in it, but their bid of 37 pence came out top on this occasion.

Has anyone seen the 'snowdrop message' in the grass just before the last bus stop on London Road going into town???

Does it say "Just get to the point and tell people what the message is" by any chance?

If you're not going to tell then lend us a quid and I'll jump a bus along the road and see for myself.

(1) I want people to see for themselves -like Bob did at the start of this thread.

(2) Just Â£1 - are you going to walk back!!!!!!!!!!???

No, I reckon I'll be so suitably underwhelmed that I'll just top myself right there and then.

I think that some sort of photographic evidence might be required here.
