The puzzle story was popular and some of you said that they would like to see some more. Soon, there will be a new one and in the future there will be puzzle stories to train the brain every now and again. (in a rhyming mood I am:) However, it takes time to come up with quality puzzle stories, so this post's puzzle is going to be different: a picture puzzle. (Or to be precise, three picture puzzles.)
The task is the following: Find out what you can see in the following three pictures as precisely as possible. The third picture is a bit more difficult than the first two. Partly, because I took that one, and my pictures are always puzzles even for me. And partly, because it is only a fraction of the whole picture. Nevertheless, I hope you will be able to solve this new puzzle. Again, I am not only interested in the 'real' solution, but in any other interesting and imaginative solution as well.
Here they go.

Picture 3:

You have one week to think. You don't need to have guesses for all the three to comment. If you have ideas for one or two, that's fine too. Next Wednesday, I'll give the 'real' solution and a link for the originals in the comments of this post.
Hi All,
ReplyDeleteI think the first is a screw. The second are ancient herrings found by archeologists and the last is an obscure map of a shore of a lake.
Bye.. :) Nik
Hi, so, the first one looks like a string of a piano for me. The second one may be an ugly shell, and the third, yes, that is kinda difficult. I guess in the backgruond there is sunhine shining through the leaves of a tree. :) it was AnnA
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteHere are my tips
Pic 1
a) It's a grip of a real Hattori Hanzo samurai sword from Kill Bill :)
b) A gilded phone-cord from Győzike's villa. :)

a) David, you should eat your cashews in time. :)
b) It's a seashell (bivalve, oyster).
Pic 3: If you want to take a photo about yourself hold the objective in front of your nose. :) It's a stone with trees in the background.
Good luck, Tibi
