Powers of Observation

see if you can pass this test


There are two identical pictures that will appear on the screen. Almost 8,000 people were tested to see if they could find the 3 differences in the two pictures and only 19 found all 3. See how observant you are. If you find all 3, you're one of very few people who are able to do this.

I was on the receiving end of a mild tongue lashing when I forwarded the e-mail and http link to my darling wife who was having a tranquil moment at her PC at the time.

I heard the screams from my study.

Cheers

1. There is a man in the boat in the right hand picture and he is having a drink (looks to be a martini). In the left hand picture the man in the boat is smoking a pipe.

2. In the left hand picture - there is a tree, to the left of the red house in the village. There are five apples on the ground and in the picture on the right there are only four apples

3. Oh yes and there is a bizzare looking woman that fills up the entire screen.

How did I go Houghy?

Cheers Petra
