Ok Guys, here goes something unusual.

Study the attached photograph carefully. There is something very unusual about it. Can you tell me what it is? Short answers only. The picture is original and not altered in any way. Even though everything looks normal, it is NOT. Identify what is abnormal in this picture. Think out of the box and let your imagination fly................. Huh?

Contest closes at 8pm tomorrow, unless we have a winner before that.

Winner gets a Zephyr Catapult Balsa Glider kit shipped free from my side to any address in India.

All the best! Thumbs Up

VC

Attaching a picture of the Zephyr Kit - 37 cm + Polyhedral Wingspan / Fuselage 39 cm.

There is a river flowing right in the middle of the village may be due to floods and the coconut trees in the background appear as if people are crossing the river on high stilts

No. It is not a painting. There is no illusion or spot something that looks like something else etc. There is NO trick involved here. I can't elaborate more without giving the game away.  Grin

It is all natural yet we get to photograph something like this very rarely. The resolution is poor, perhaps, due to the unusual nature of the photograph!  Huh?  Bang Head

Hamaero WINS! Clap Clap Clap

Guwahati was lashed by furious storms last night and there was a veritable barrage of lightning strikes. I waited patiently with the camera in pitch black darkness and was lucky enough to get this shot at 10:30pm, when night turned into day.

Heli=Diff parts flying together in close formation



I was not joking when I mentioned a kid running with his plane

see the pic below...

Doesn't matter now ...it was like spot the heli contest. In this case it was spot the rocket.. nothing unsusual about the winners answer. (no offence meant to the winner)

as Nodbody could have guessed that this was taken at night.
