Twenty-eight things are wrong in this picture below. Can you spot them all? Use comments to post your findings… I found only one, well didn’t look that much, but seems pretty hard. My finding is that wind is blowing strangly here, since there is smoke coming out of the chimney and going right, while trees are bent left. Please help me with 27 other wrong things… When you solve them all, jump to “Face in the Coffe”, “Dolphins”, “Many Faces” or grand “Virgin’s find the 75 Bands” for simmilar tasks.

Appart from the comments I read, I found that the guy was as tall (or nearly) as the house. Just hope it isn’t his…
The dude’s shadow is the opposite direction of the gate, One of the sheep’s tail is the wrong color, The tallest tree has a branch with the wrong color of leaves, The dude is as tall as the wall, The strap on the horse is wrong.
if you look at the mans shadow it is facing a different way to the shadow from the gate and they should be the same.
The smoke in the chimmney is blowing a different way to the trees
look closely at the staircase ;)
the smoke above the chimney is being blown the wrong way. all of the trees are being blown by the wind to the left but the smoke is going to the right
it looks like hes not wearing pants
The wind is blowing the smoke one direction and the trees the other direction.
umm. the smoke is going the wrong direction. if u look at the trees theyre going to the left and the smoke is going to the right
no shadow for the chimney
and the trees in the feils are not blown over like the ones in the yard and if i am not mistaken the house dont have no shadow neither
Why is the ‘free standing’ gate have a coloured shadow? I’m probably wrong…
the gate is just a piece of fence
no hinges
The Curtians are also outside the window, not inside…
Errrmmm….
1.The Back Two Trees Are Bare
2.The Wheels Of The Cart Are Different
3.Theres No Door
4.The Farmers Shadow And The Gates Shadow Are Pointing In Different Directions
5.The Chimney Smoke Is Blowing In The Opposite Direction To The Trees
6.The Tall Tree On The Left Has A Dodgy Branch
7.One Of The Sheep Are Missing a Leg
8.Another Sheep Has A Tail Like a Dog
9.The Mule Is Ploughing The Wrong Way
Not Bad!!
I really don’t think that their should be trees growing in a cultivated field, also the smaller of the two trees is actually growing out of the cottage’s roof.
the dog has sheep legs
If you look at the gate, it has five wooden planks going across it. But if you look at its’ shadow, it only has four planks. Glad to help!

Just thought I’d point out that the ground the man is standing on is actually level with the ground the sheep are on. It’s an optical illision in itself, caused by the stone wall.
I may be repeating some because I didn’t have time to go through all the comments. I found many that were already found. Here are some I didn’t see:
Is the dog herding the sheep the wrong way? (away from the gate)
One sheep is going the wrong way (the one with one leg missing)
The shadow of the fence is wavy
Can a climbing plant grow up the side of a house without a trellis or something?
The man has no facial features
Maybe inappropriate vegetation for the area? That tall tree looks Asian-ish (I could be completely wrong)
the shadows are strange: the man’s is pointing towards the left, and the fence is pointing down…
I haven’t seen anyone notice this b4 on this page. the trees are blowing towards the left, but the smoke outta the chimney is going to the right!
*****MCKENZIE*****
the shadow on the gate is going one way and the shadow on the man is going another

Here is one that NOBODY so far has seen: Two bundles of green hay tied and stacked side by side horizontally at the base of the tree at the end of the house, outside the gate. Cut flat ends looks like there growing the wrong direction.
The gate’s shadow is wavey
The smoke from the chimney is blowing in the wrong direction, the wind is blowing left but the smoke is blowing right.
The man’s shadow and the gate’s shadow are not cast in the same direction
I GOT ONE!! THE SMOKE FORM THE CHIMNEY AND THE TREES ARE BLOWING OPOSITE WAYS. 110th?
are you all missing the point that the farmer is not standing on the same level of ground as the sheep and dog but rather the ground is at the same height as the fence
i agree with the others commentors…hihihi^^
1.The size of the farmer is too large compared to the house, (the farmer is as tall as the wall of the house).
2. The stone wall of the fence between the house and the gate is curved in a way that looks like it will topple over.
3. Shouldn’t a person be guiding the plow and mule?
4. The landing by the missing door is curving upward (convex?).
the shadow of the gate is towards the southwest corner of the picture, the mans shadow on the other hand is towards the north west corner of the picture
The sky stops abruptly. The bushes turn suddenly white at the bottom… ;)
The smoke from the chimney is blowing a different direction than the wind in the trees.
the wind id blowing one way and the smoke is going the other way
The dog has the wrong legs, one of the sheep has the wrong tail, The mule is plowing the field in the worng direction, the shadow of the fence is wrong direction, one of the sheep is missing a leg, The wheelbarrol is missing a handle, the house has no door, one of the branches in the tall tree does not match the tree its on, the wheels on the wheelcart are mismatched, The old man looks naked lol,
the widow’s curtains are outside
the shadow on the fance in front and the shadow on the man is behind hom.
THERES NOT A DOOR!
i didn’t read anybody mention that the trees in the back have no leaves and the ones in the front do, even though they are both deciduous.
some of the sheep are walking in the wrong direction
The tall tree has a different kind of leafes..
1.the left where the shepherd is standind the round level is high it luking as if the fence is below it
2.in the tallest tree there is sudden different kind of leaves coming out :)
The horse is ploughing towards the already ploughed area. The area that should have been ploughed already appears untouched.
the horse shouldn’t be ploughing the field at HARVEST TIME (people in background are clearly gathering crops in)
There’s a shrub or something on top of the stone wall to the far left. Or maybe that’s just a tree?
if you look at the fence just right looks like a stair case going up
I don’t think anyone mentioned the upward curving roof on the right side of the house.
For all of you who think you discovered the tough to find chiminy smoke and trees being blown in opposite directions, how about reading the authors comments before you comment. Only a dolt would submit that find. Yah, that’s you Anonymous, and you did it twice!! For all the cynical, condescending comments you make on these various illusions, you need to stop and smell the roses cause you are a real downer. The designer of this web site doesn’t deserve that. Sorry, but I got to tell it like I see it. Have a nice day!
someone probably already pointed this out, but i didn’t read it in the comments: the shadow of the gate at the front has four horizontal lines while the gate itself has five.
the gate can’t be opened, it has no hinges
the house have no door with a step
the fence door is not based anywhere.it is just standing there….
the horse is undoing the work on the floor
At first, I thought the gate was actually steps- with a shadow.
The wheel of the wheelbarrow’s in the wrong place – should be at the front of the wheelbarrow, not the back.
The sheep are smaller than the dog.
The trees in the background have lost their foliage, while the ones in the foreground haven’t.
The shadow of the gate looks more like a reflection in water.
The ivy on the house has no soil to grow out of.
It appears to be summer (from the majority of the trees), and daytime, and yet there is a hearth-fire burning inside the house, as if it were a winter evening. Also, the sheep are unshorn.
It looks like there are curtains on the outside of the windows, but hard to tell.
The shadow of the house does not include the chimney.
There is no door infront of the porch…
Noone is plowing with the horse
there seems to be a mattress outside of the house below the windows.
1. smoke (everybody said)
2. There is a sheep with long tail
3.there is no door to enter the house
4. the horse is erasing the field (i mean, he is not making lines..)
5. the shadow of the door is wrong
6. The door of the farm has no way to open it.
7. The big tall tree have a diferent kind of branch.
8. He has no pastor clothes
9. The sheep are smaller than the dog
10. Why he is looking for the sheeps in a place without grass?
Don’t know if anyone is seeing this but…you see the horse that’s plowing the field? ya it’s UNplowing the field back to its original state where as it should be making humps of soil .
all them sheep are screwed up.
1. Dog has sheep legs

19. the sky ends all-of-a-sudden
20. the trees in field seem to have no wind blowing them
21. the man is clearly not a farmer (cain, anyone?!)
22. Why are there sheep there, where did they come from and where are they going?
23. The gate shadow is wavey (tho, the ground could be, but it looks dodgey)
24. The man is too big for the house
25. The doormat is curved
26. Autumn and spring at the same time (nicely spotted by awesomeman69)

THERE IS NO DOOR BUT THERE IS A MAT!!!!! ON THE HOUSE!
The gate has 5 slats, but the shadow shows only four.
The wheels on the cart are NQR – different sizes.
WOOOOOOOOOOOO :)
For the love of God doesn’t anybody read others posts? You list the same things multiple times and some are stupid, like the shadow of the fence is wavy, maybe the fucking ground is uneven. The door could be around the house, NO FUCKING SHIT THE SMOKE IS BLOWING THE WRONG WAY – It’s even in the damn description, how the shit does the sky end? I see it still going behind everything else… The fence doesn’t have to be attached to the wall, in fact I have one where the post is split down the middle and swings open from there.
One thing wrong with this picture is that it fucking sucks, just like the retards that post the same shit.
the shadows are all going in different directions and that’s impossible
The tallest tree in the picture is a hybrid of 2 trees….+
The 2 trees behind the house have no leafs= 2 seasons in one picture…
Is it me or there is like a ghost on the wall right from the fence.. :S
Well. I don’t know if this counts but. the gate/fence has 5 bars, but the shadow has only 4.
Shadow of man is going to the back left, gate shadow is going front left, dog shadow is going right and sheep shadow is going left.
The guy isn’t wearing any pants. And last but not least, this illusion sucks.
there are many things wrong with this
1.there is no door, even though there is a doorstep
2.the walls show that there must be a hill, but the land is flat behind it.
3. the shadows are all wacked out
4. there is no one behind the plow.
there are more, but i can’t list them all
trees blow one way smoke they other.. :)
sea isn’t flat
harvest and plow in same season
wheelbarrow can’t work
two kinds of leaves on one tree
and last but not least, this isn’t an illusion…
Curtains on outside of house
Different seasons in background (no leaves) and foreground (leaves)
Horse and plow facing the wrong way
Front sheep missing a foreleg
- One sheep has a black tail
- Dog legs are different colors
- Prison bars on the windows?!
:-)
i found another one the three behind the man the leafs are all dark except one
i found another one the mountain on the back is not a mountain its water !!!!!!!!!
the gate looks like stairs since the man is elevated
