    Aw shit. For years I’ve been seeing this picture and didn’t understand it. I finally got it.

    because today was the first time I zoomed in and focused on the bottles. Today I noticed there are four bottles. But only three arms. So I zoomed in on the 4th floating bottle and noticed the glove-clad hand. I followed the hand and saw it was attached to an arm clad in camouflage.

        There is city camo too. It utilizes straight edges instead of round edges, since cities have lots of straight edges and nature has few. Camo just breaks up your outline which stops the mind from perceiving you immediately.

    THAT is effective camo! It took me minutes wondering how they got the gloves on the photo and removed the arm… until I saw the arm.

      Right? I figured it was an odd setup with an obvious solution: one of them used their other arm to insert the bottle between all their hands. Then the pattern snapped out like a jump scare.

      It took me reading your comment for my brain to be convinced enough that there was actually something there to see
