What is it? #84

 What is it?

Welcome back to my regular series where I invite you to stare at a picture of a cloud or another object which seems to resemble something or someone else other than the obvious.  I absolutely love the comments on this series so do have a go! 

This week's photo is another cloud. 

What does it remind you of? What do you see other than a cloud?

What about last time?


C was drinking his Singha beer in the Thai restaurant and I couldn't help but see a Frog face it in

 Namely, Sad Frog's face! (see my Summer 2024 post for who Sad Frog is) 

What about my lovely participants?

    1. I love every answer! Variety is nice as well as concordance!

  7. The beer says: 30! I am the only one seeing a number though.

    ReplyDelete
  8. To me it looks like multiple heart prints (inside the bubbles/foam, and also foam bubbles themselves)

    ReplyDelete

There was definitely a lot of frog agreement but also Dragon, 30 and hearts as well as a scary face!! Loved everyone's responses!

Do join in if you can!

What is it? #81

'What is it?'

For anyone who has missed the premise, this is a game where I have seen something...be it a cloud, a shape in the cream of a hot chocolate mug, or a spot of mould which I see some sort of image beyond the literal- be it character, creature, shape or something else. I post it and you have to look at it and see if you, too, see something beyond a cloud etc!

I  LOVE this series- I loved it when people saw the same as me or saw something completely different which I didn't see but suddenly see once you describe it to me! 

This time we have a cloud I saw when in a supermarket car park!


Do leave me a comment telling me what you think you see in that cloud?

What about last time?



I saw this cloud and saw it as a young bird with a gangly neck leaning out of a nest, reaching down for something.  I did also see that the 'nest' could also be its body too!

What about my lovely commenters (THANK YOU to those of you who played along- you made my day/week!) 

  1. I see a cloud bird fleeing from what looks like a bird of prey hovering high above it. What did you see?

    ReplyDelete
  2. It's a flying duckling

    ReplyDelete
  3. I see a rubber chicken!

    ReplyDelete
  4. I rarely see anythung in clouds but thats definitely a peacock in your cup! xx

    ReplyDelete
  5. Anythung? Anything!

    ReplyDelete
  6. Another bird! This time it's a duckling, either flying or running really fast with it's neck outstretched.

    ReplyDelete
  7. I see a person swimming with a dugong!

    ReplyDelete
  8. I see a duck swimming and extending it's neck.

  9. Seal on left hand side and a dancing seahorse on right side 👍

    ReplyDelete


Well, lots of the lovely folks DID see a bird, several mentioned a young bird, Ivana  and Bev mentioned the gangly neck, Sheila saw my nest as a dugong (which I see!) 

Hooray!

Do let me know what you saw this time!

What is it? #78

Hello there!
Welcome to another round of What is it?  in which you tell me what your imagination sees in the image other than the literal picture, e.g. you might see the shape of a giraffe in the cloud or a house. 
Leave me a comment showing what you saw as I adore seeing how your imagination differs or is similar to mine!
What do you see in this cloud below  


What about last time?
Well, in this image, on the left, I saw a guinea pig or a beaver with its mouth open- you can see its eye and nose. It is facing another creature which looks like it is spitting out something. It reminds me of a large version of the Worm from the film Labyrinth or some sort of lizard creature.





What did our illustrious and much-appreciated commenters see?

    I'm not anonymous, I'm Joy from Joyknitt, although blogger doesn't recognise me even though I'm signed in ! In the top photo I can definitely see a lizard on the left, and on the right, a dog barking (at the lizard, no doubt). Thanks for the fun x x

    ReplyDelete
  2. I should not read any other comments before deciding on my own! I was having trouble seeing anything, but now I see both clouds as lizards!

    ReplyDelete
  3. I think it's a tortoise (left) having a lively conversation with a small dog (right).
    Still trying to see the late Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh in the previous one ... love your imagination! xxx

    ReplyDelete
  4. I must have been born lacking any imagination, I can't for the life of me see anything but clouds#. Maybe I should come back after a couple of beers! xxx

    ReplyDelete
  5. Aww my comment from last time seems to have disappeared. I saw a bear on the left pictured from above and thought the cloud on the right could be a bear which would make it Baloo the Bear from jungle book talking to Kaa.

    1. Posted too soon! In the new one there's definitely a tortoise or turtle on the left but I cannot of me see anything on the right!

      Delete


Quite a few lizards or reptilian creatures mentioned and definitely creatures communicating though I like the variation in what we considered it was!

Do join in the fun!

What is it? #77

Greetings!

How are you today? Well, I hope.
Draw up a chair and a cup of tea and get your thinking cap for the next round of 'What is it?'
In this game, you have a look at the picture below and see if you see an image in the cloud other than a cloud, e.g. animal, mineral, place, person, shape, etc.
You then leave a comment telling me what you thought it was and in the next edition, I will share what I thought it was!




Do leave a comment as these posts are one of my favourite blog posts as it's fun to see how people's imaginations differ or are similar!



What about last time?


They are talking to someone else in this picture? Think of someone they might talk to? Who is that?

 To me, I could see our late Queen Elizabeth II on the left, facing to the right but looking down.  In the second picture, you can see she is talking to the late Duke of Edinburgh who looked distinctly badger-like in it later years.
What did our diminutive, but much appreciated commenters see?

Alas, no one saw my Royal Family but I am always intrigued to see what others saw!

  1. No, I can't see anything but clouds! x

  2. I'm seeing two totally different things, neither of which probably make any sense. My first thought was the cloud on the left was a pencil, but I'm not sure what it's trying to do the cloud on the right. But the second photo made me think the cloud on the right was a fish about to open its mouth and devour the cloud-fish on the left! It's funny where our brains go...

    ReplyDelete
  3. I can definitely see two creatures talking, but I can't tell you who they are, I'm afraid ... xxx

    ReplyDelete
  4. Well it's obvious isn't it Kezzie - the clouds look like a terrapin trying to eat a piece of toblerone chocolate! (???) ;) xXX

What is it? Cloud#76

Hello there!

It's time for another 'What is it?'
Here's the premise of these posts. 
I share a picture of something: a cloud, a tree, a vegetable, an object, a fold in a curtain, which bears resemblance to something else besides its obvious form, e.g. a potato that looks like a seal or a cloud that looks like Zeus shooting firebolts, or a curtain pattern that resembles a violin (yes, we've had all those).
Your job is too scrutinize the image and see what YOU see in the image, besides the obvious. 
You then share it in the comments.
I then reveal what I saw in a future post, alongside the illustrious commenters and share any similarities in opinions. It's fun to try and see what other people saw so DO join in the fun and leave a comment. I promise I'm not doing some sort of psychological test!  Please do comment, even if you haven't before, so I am not a Larry No-mates in the return to this post type!
Here's this time's image
It was a cloud that I spied from a moving car. I took two images.
Actually, this time, I should say, WHO is it rather than WHAT is it?

They are talking to someone else in this picture? Think of someone they might talk to? Who is that?
I can't wait to hear what you think!

What about last time?


This mangled piece of tissue ended up on the floor. I looked down and immediately saw an elephant's head. Two ears, a trunk and thin slitted closed eyes.
What did the illustrious commenters think?
  1. It's a little pale (they tend to be yellow), but my first thought was a squash blossom.

    ReplyDelete
  2. I see an elephant's head and its trunk! xxx

    ReplyDelete
  3. It's a shark! x

    ReplyDelete
  4. I see a stingray!



I can also see the images the others saw definitely but Ann also saw my elephant!

Do leave a comment for this time?

What is it? #74 - The prodigal post returns

It's been almost 3 years since I last shared one of my 'What is it?' posts.
Here's the premise of these posts.

Here's this time's image:

It's a cloud that reminded me of something else. What do you see this shaped cloud as?
Leave a comment saying what you thought!


What about last time?

I shared this cloud in August 2020 from my holiday to the Northumbrian coast.



I thought I saw Steven Spielburg's creation, ET (Extra Terrestial) holding out his magic glowing finger, facing to the side!!

What did our lovely commenters see?

  1. It is a playful dog. It is not seen in its entirely, but the head and paws are clearly seen.

    ReplyDelete
  2. A weightlifter flexing his arm, but it is only his arm flexing. I have a strange imagination !

    ReplyDelete
  3. Ohh now I see it a frog sticking his tounge out !

    ReplyDelete
  4. It's a fluffy dog jumping across the sky :-) xxx

    ReplyDelete
  5. Jan said some kind of creature holding a pipe - maybe a bear.

    I see the head and front legs of a puppy.

    ReplyDelete
I loved these ideas!
Everyone saw a creature and several people saw the finger/hand stretching out.

Do join in the fun!
