You may want to use a higher resolution image if you want to demonstrate this effectively

[–] [email protected] 109 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Is it hiding behind one of the pixels?

spoilerLook where the snow makes a "V" shape in the lowe half of the image then go directly down. It is almost directly underneath!

[–] [email protected] 92 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I know, thank you, I just hate the “can you spot the …?” pictures that are low resolution and poorly compressed.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

Ah yes, it's a well loved meme. :)

Even with the red circle I can’t see it.

Edit: There it is. Wasn’t interpreting the depth of the image right and thought it was supposed to be further away.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

I see a gummy bear that fell in the dirt

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 month ago

Perhaps you could compress the image further into an even shittier format? I can still make out the snow leopard from this one.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago

That's just a bunch of pixels from a shitty image

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

Holy shit I’m dead

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

It’s insane that this is age-restricted now.

Yah, I don’t have a google account so I can’t see it hahaha

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

This version is not age-restricted. Plus it's an Invidious link that AFAIK jumps over those.

Enjoy you JPEGs!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

SO MUCH LOVE

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Seen it before, still clicked. Thanks for the nostalgia trip.

[–] [email protected] 57 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Maybe I could see it if you jpeged it further?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago

I honestly think it helps with this one

[–] [email protected] 53 points 1 month ago

It’s just a snow leopard, you don’t need to censor it with all that blur.

[–] [email protected] 48 points 1 month ago (2 children)

In my defense, my pattern recognition works a lot better with depth perception and movement

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago

With ambush predators, perceiving them by movement is usually too late.

I love you.

That's literally the funniest thing I've seen all week on Lemmy.

Op is trolling with the red circle. Look just above it. It's only the leopard's head.

I'm super fun at parties guys I swear

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I found il later, but its not only its head, but its lying down with body on left

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Oh you're probably right but needs more jpeg

ENHANCE

Protip: Snow-leopard is not white

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Dirt leopard

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 month ago

I've seen this picture a couple of times, and I remember where he is. Easy, he's... uh... errr...

Damn.

From https://www.escape.com.au/news/snow-leopard-perfectly-camouflaged-in-mountain-terrain-baffles-the-internet/news-story/bcc5e99d35292787175a13f489ebd7aa. Brought to you by reporters copying things of reddit, but at least escape didn't butcher the image, unlike boredpanda.

The photographer's website wouldn't load for me, so I don't know if it has a better quality available.

Saw it too late. Am lunch.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago

In the real world there are way more pixels.

This is a shitty image.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Gave nose boop. Am dinner.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago

Didn't see it for a good while and was thinking that this was some commentary on why hardly any snow leopards are around anymore because of mass extinctions, habitat loss and climate change...

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

Find the kitty, pet the kitty.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

in my defense, i did not know what a snow leopard was and thought it was white like a polar bear

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

Horrid Vision Simulator is coming along nicely, it's perfectly blurry

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

I thought the point was the whole thing was actually tiny, just a handful of snow and small isicles. Then I saw the leopard.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Is the snow leopard a scientician?
