Taking my daily shots today I have discovered a new aspect of photography. It sometimes allows us to see something that we don't even notice at first.
Only later on, when uploading photos on PC I noticed the two cats in my photo. :)
So I wanted to share this experience and see if anyone of you has had the same "coincidences" or some other ways of how photos allow us to see more than at first. :)
Or maybe it means I am not attentive enough, while taking photos? :) it made me think...
Bit of a different kind of coincidence, but @msartsy and I (who don't know each other and live 4 hours apart) discovered that we were in the exact same location at the EXACT same time (check the time stamp on our shots) taking shots of the same building. But we didn't see or notice each other. Here's mine:
It wasn't til I took the photo, did some photoshop and post it on here that I decided to see what time was on the White Rabbit's watch. The watch just happened to be on 5pm as it is in in all the photos I searched.
@autumnseden That is a funny coincidence :) I like it :) @webfoot Yeah, it takes a while to notice it :) @minxymissk You have pretty nice coincidences there :) @jannkc Very interesting moment :) @sdpace ha-ha :D @lilbudhha The fellow really is barely noticable :) @kmrtn6 Oh, very mysterious! @dulciknit Great moment to capture :) @annaruth Cool :) and cool photo as well :) @sanera Secret smiley, love it :) @buttercup Looks like the one is chasing the other :) @kalexa I agree, the bird looks so good, and the whole photo is very beautiful :) @izzymathie Really perfect moment :)
Thank you photo friends for sharing your "coincidences" with me :) I had so much fun :)
Hihi, there are some really cool coincidences in your shots!
I found another one of mine: I didn't know I was capturing a man standing on my chin when I took this:
PS: And in case you wondered, I know how to rotate pictures - I wanted this to be that way ;).
My comment when I posted this: "What I love about this photo is how the water spout from the pond at the preserve is perfectly framed in the stone structure. The framing was purely happenstance... I was oblivious to the spout at this point and lucky to have it a part of the scene."
Here's another one. Actually, there's several things I missed when I took the shot, the most obvious being the large sea gull taking wing, which I think really makes the photo, but the light flare that makes it look like we have a second sun, much like the planet Tatooine was something else I didn't notice until I got it on the computer.
@bugik@kimfaria I know - the week before that I posted a shot that I didn't know she already had in her project of a little stagnant pond off the side of the road - 4 hours away from where I live. So weird!
I didn't know that I had caught my reflection in the bubble, both upright and flipped upside down. My husband pointed it out and was like that is so cool that you did that, and I was like.......um.....yeah.....I meant to do that ;)
@tnaki :) Thanks Tineke. :) And if you find some, please share :) @jannaellen :) Funny coincidence :) @rfantone Where are they??? :D This is like a task! @dmariewms Oh, such a lovely coincidence :) Almost like mine :) @mebswartz Perfectly framed indeed :) @miata2u Nice coinsidence as well :) @kittykaija This is like those excercises for children. Find 2 moose in this photo :) @webfoot What a pciture!!!! @brebeth If you find something, please share :) @pamelaf It really is almost invisible :) @geertje What a cute photo! :) @jomerso I so love your bubble photo :) Great reflections :) @grammyn Reminds me of alien abduction :) @pamelaf :D Love your coinsidence!!! It's great! :) @dejongdd Pretty large one :) @gardengal So nice!
Thank you all for sharing, really interesting to look at your experiences. :)
I was photographing the grandkids blowing bubbles and until I downloaded, I had no idea that I had a reflection of myself, granddaughter, and gazebo in the bubble.
I swear no-one was around the lagoon when I took this picture! I even called a friend who was with me, asking her if she had seen anyone. She was also positive there were just us two.... Strange!!!
@lasminja - that's very funny. I was so nervous taking this first candid which I was hoping I'd feel good enough about to post, that I didn't notice until I had it on my screen that the little dog and water dish were there. It's so funny because I'm such a nut about dog, cats, etc. I even walked past them after without seeing the dog. Now, the dog just makes the pic for me.
@janmaki pointed out that there is a third elephant if you take the tail as the tusk and the right leg as the trunk of an elephant in side profile...
:) Now I know, there's something magical about taking photos. :) What a great way to get inspired. :)
it was only some time later that I noticed the heads of the people at the bottom of the waterfall
in this one it was the fly in between the irises
and here the knot at the bottom shaped like a heart
@steveh Looks cool :)
:-)
I didn't notice the smiley face on this one until I'd uploaded it
On this one the heart just wasn't visible on the view finder - it's fab!
@autumnseden ..ha! fab
@sdpace ..ha! cheeky..
@webfoot Yeah, it takes a while to notice it :)
@minxymissk You have pretty nice coincidences there :)
@jannkc Very interesting moment :)
@sdpace ha-ha :D
@lilbudhha The fellow really is barely noticable :)
@kmrtn6 Oh, very mysterious!
@dulciknit Great moment to capture :)
@annaruth Cool :) and cool photo as well :)
@sanera Secret smiley, love it :)
@buttercup Looks like the one is chasing the other :)
@kalexa I agree, the bird looks so good, and the whole photo is very beautiful :)
@izzymathie Really perfect moment :)

I did not see the black butterfly in the middle of the photo until I pulled it up bigger later.
@jannaellen :) Funny coincidence :)

using my macro lens to take a picture of this butterfly and I didn't see this little fellow on the bottom
And I seriously hadn't noticed the seagull in this one - I was concentrating on lining up her arms with the buildings in the background ;)
I didn't notice until I processed this...there is a spare tyre next to the plane and the the scissor lift has a flat!
