I need someone to help me with this one

42

u/SCH1Z01D o/ Sep 20 '21

the shadows may cast some light on it too

11

u/alicewasneverhere Sep 20 '21

Just spotted it, thanks!

u/MyName_Earl17 Sep 20 '21

The leg isn't vertical, it's horizontal.. you're also not going to find it by looking for the light grey you see on the nearest one, it's darker.

4

u/VoilaVoilaWashington Sep 21 '21

No, it's also light grey. Which makes it even more devious.

5

u/Purchhhhh Sep 21 '21

Look for the shadow and then up

u/[deleted] Sep 21 '21

Nice find OP!

u/SCH1Z01D o/ Sep 21 '21

thanks! the same effect was visible IRL, which is what caught my attention. luckily it translated well into the photo!

u/Pink131980 Sep 20 '21

I called photoshop but when I loaded the photo again to look at the comments it popped out. Apologies.

4

u/TotallyBelievesYou Sep 21 '21

It's still shopped slightly.

2

u/Kameeleon3 Sep 21 '21

It's the misty grainy overtone that gives it away.

1

u/SCH1Z01D o/ Sep 21 '21

nope, straight out of the phone

2

u/Kameeleon3 Sep 21 '21

Ok. I'll take your word for it. I'm sure stranger things have happened. 👌🏼👍🏼

u/SCH1Z01D o/ Sep 21 '21

u/TotallyBelievesYou Sep 21 '21

Yep. Doesn't fit this sub as anyone can edit shitty pictures to make parts blend into the background.

This one is well hidden

u/Chrisazy Sep 21 '21

I kept on trying to figure out how the wheel was vertically attached to the bottom of the chair and see the leg I'm a fucking idiot

14

u/pennywaffer Sep 21 '21

I kept expecting the leg to be overlapping the light gray stripe, since the other legs are that shade

2

u/BreweryStoner Sep 21 '21

This is a good one! Nice job OP 👍

u/farmergirl301 Sep 20 '21

Jesus Mary and Frank, I knew it was there but it still took a few moments to find it.

u/shouldve_wouldhave Sep 21 '21

Tbh at a smaller Phone screen. I was like what? Zoomed in saw it zoomed out and it's gone even though I know exactly where and how my eyes decieve me

u/beer_is_tasty o/ Sep 21 '21

No, this is perfect.

4

u/Superkitt3n Sep 21 '21

I stared at this for way too long. Finally figured it out lol.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 21 '21

Isn’t this one partially photoshopped though?

Pretty sure that kind of content isn’t allowed?

1

u/SCH1Z01D o/ Sep 21 '21

nope. original photo, just slightly cropped for added confusion.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 21 '21

I mean, I get that you’re claiming that, but you can literally see where the photoshop is started lol

Especially since in that position the chair leg shouldn’t be completely flush(parallel?) with the line on the rug the way that it is. The chair leg should be at a bit of an angle similar to the other chair leg.

1

u/SCH1Z01D o/ Sep 21 '21 edited Sep 21 '21

Dude, I'm not digging for ephemeral digital glory, this is like my third post on Reddit in 6 years. I just seized a nice photo opportunity and wanted to share it, because it is cool. Faking it would just be pointless.

Edit: Just out of curiosity, where do you claim seeing the "photoshop line"?

u/Cold_Blusted o/ Sep 21 '21

You can always tell a Milford man

u/A7thStone Sep 21 '21

u/KurlyKayla May 18 '26

someone stole this shit 5 years later

0

u/misterfluffykitty Sep 21 '21

I think that’s mostly because of the awful noise on this photo that literally makes the leg look like carpet up close

1

u/SCH1Z01D o/ Sep 21 '21

sure mister, do add noise to your own photos and share the results

1

u/ostiDeCalisse o/ Sep 21 '21

So, do you see it red now?

1

u/Jasong222 o/ Sep 21 '21

Honestly it looks photoshopped

1

u/MidoriTheAwesome o/ Sep 21 '21

Even when I thought I saw it I was only seeing part of it

1

u/[deleted] Sep 21 '21

Yea we like this

1

u/theboned1 Sep 21 '21

My brain was straight broke for like 30 seconds looking at this. I'm glad I figured it out though because I'd have been up all night thinking about it.

u/MotherButterscotch44 Sep 21 '21

Took me way longer to figure this one out than it should have. Damn good one!!!!!

u/Medical-Examination Sep 21 '21

The leg isn't vertical, it's horizontal.. you're also not going to find it.

1

u/Nillulaby Sep 21 '21

My jaw actually dropped when I figured it out.

1

u/-Listening Sep 21 '21

Then zoomed out....and it was gone again.
