post something that'll make us go 'what the fuck...'

only rule, of course, is that it has to be your photo. and I prefer it not be photochopped

I'll start things off:

RogueGypsy · 12-09-2010, 11:48 PM

MM-

The bottom pic was part of a social perception experiment carried out by some brilliant Englishmen. I forgot to resize the pic and probably blew the effect. Viewed smaller it looks, at first glance, like a field of sheep. I'll try to edit it.

The idea of the experiment was to show people a familiar scene composed of unlikely objects and record the observations. The majority of responders listed "field of sheep" as what they saw.

The pic was titled "Sheeple".

mixedmedia · 12-10-2010, 04:04 AM

thank you, smarts and monkeylove.

so were you the photographer, RG? not that it's a huge deal or anything, but photos posted in this forum are supposed to be your own.

ha! say cheese!

that is a beautiful dog.

Latex Ren · 12-10-2010, 08:08 AM

He was having a sneezing fit and I happened to have the camera handy. Got lucky and snapped that just as he was letting loose.

We call it the 'devil dog' look. His name is Storm.

I was not the photographer. Just a friend of one of the mad scientist doing the experiment. I'll only post my own here in the future. My bad. Didn't know.

your photo reminded me of this one from the Miami Int'l Airport.
I refer to it as the Busby Berkeley Maritime Roulette of Death

Grains of salt on felt. I was playing around with a reversal ring on my Canon A1. Salt looks like cubes close up.

---------- Post added at 04:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:15 PM ----------

here is one that is disturbing in a different way.
the man had a capuchin monkey on a chain, wearing a diaper and drinking from a squirt bottle.
but it had the largest breasts I've ever seen on a monkey.

Great photo, confederate. where was that taken?

that's very odd looking, Bacchanal, the mask gives the illusion of him having a really tiny head in relation to his body.

I've always enjoyed this photo, lol.

dlish · 12-15-2010, 04:24 AM

MM..that was taken in Borneo...goes without saying that i didnt eat the fish that night.

i took this pic on the way to work about a year ago.. a massive hail storm hit a few minutes later. i missed it in the nick of time

mixedmedia · 12-15-2010, 04:32 AM

wow, beautiful and terrifying. this one would work on the abstracts thread, too.

dlish · 12-15-2010, 04:41 AM

was driving along in a now un-named country and the road had just been washed away in the rain a few days before. the road just....disappeared.

I like that you can see a bit of the reflection of the photographer.
That weirdly bent arm adds to the in-your-face aspect of the penis.

Contribution to this thread as well... Last new year at my parents... must have been some bad program.

TV is from 80's, used to be in my brother's room, where we watched it. I'm not sure how I could explain the weird association to the name Tshernobyl any better, than seeing in what condition it is now.
