Internet Optical Illusion of the Day

I gave up after five minutes and looked for the answer. Then you can't not see it. I probably should have tried harder. :)

30 seconds from when I was told there was something hidden. (The cat probably would have taken me much longer if I hadn't known I was looking for a cat.)

And, yes, it's an interesting phenomenon once you've "found" something in a picture that you can't "lose" it again.

I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

I thought it was the face and the tongue sticking out about 5/8 of the way down the right side... i.e., there is no optical illusion, so I quit looking.

Sorta like my pictures of me in my full camouflage outfit. "I'm standing right next to the first big tree on the left."

Negative. But I know you are an aficionado of what is there. :)

See it now.  Looked like mouse to me at first.

I initially thought it was a rock.

Yep. :)

That explains it. I was looking for something the cigar was hiding.

The stupid cat one bugged me because I couldn't see the stupid cat until I put my stupid reading glasses on. Stupid getting old.

I saw it immediately, but it looked like a pipe to me. (A water pipe, not a tobacco pipe.) I still haven't seen any cat.

Yeah, I saw the cigar and was wondering if there was something else to see. Is there?

Finally saw the cat.  Clue:  moving right from the left near the center.  Good clue, eh? :laugh:
