Yes. A cats foot. Or a blurry picture of a coffee table leg.

I thought you were supposed to guess what is on the original picture, not what is on the picture that is posted... So actually, you're all wrong, but I dunno...

Well, if it is a cats foot, then the picture is therefore of a cat right? So cats foot would be a correct answer as well... that is of it is a cat at all.

If you were looking for "black cat", "red cat collar" or "fluffy", we are not all psychic.

You actually have to guess that it is a cat, not that it is the foot of a cat. At least, that's how the game have been so far, but if you've changed the rules...

Kentaree's to post the next picture.

No I haven't changed the rules. It's logical to assume that if someone guessed "a cat's foot", is it therefore... a cat?

We've never been too specific. Like one of mine was of a great white shark. Someone guessed it was a fish's throat and I gave it to them... because it was.

That picture is so blurry I wouldn't know if it's a cat's leg or a furry coffee table.

If you're gonna post a tiny 100px cutout of a pic, atleast make sure it's a good quality pic?

Yeah, I thought so.

Try this then:-


Glow worm : Nope
Ferris wheel : Nope
Mans head : Eh?
London eye : No
Prison : No
Bridge lit up with lights : Nah
Heathrow : No
Traffic : Erm, nope....
Blackpool tower : No
Eiffel Tower : Yes. Did the BIG hint give it away? And no, that isn't the picture I used. Very similar though.

Big hint : It is a landmark not a million miles away from where I live (Ascot/Windsor area - ie. near London). ie. Not a bad guess Zerk. Was expecting LED type comments (like those old calculators)
Hint 2 : It is something lit up with lights. And they sparkle. Think Xmas tree.....
Hint 3 : The Xmas tree is quite a big hint actually....
Hint 4 : Heh, thought I may trick people there. I said it wasn't a million miles from me. I never said it was in London. Just thought a few people may guess that from where I said I lived. Technically not a million miles puts it anywhere on earth. To be fair though it is pretty close (in American terms it's practically next door ), but it doesn't have to be in London....
Hint 5 (BIG one) : Blackpool tower is the best guess so far. Think bigger and more famous. Also think where I am, and just think in the other direction.

Cheers

Yeah looks like one of them Easter Island heads with fairy lights on it.

*edit*

The heads eye also looks like the bad guy from Scream.

I lived in London for 10 years or so but can't think what it could be.

Nearest place to you is probably Heathrow Aiport but can't think it's anything to do with that.

Ah, yes!
That is clearly the image that the pic was taken from, which means I was correct, which in turn means, it is now my go

Here is a photo that I took yesterday:

I was going to say some sort of exotic frog, but not many of them where you live I wouldn't have thought.

You are of course correct that there are no exotic frogs in my garden. However, there aren't any caterpillers either. It's a bit late in the year for them.

Perhaps it would help to point out that like my previous pictures; I have zoomed in very close. This image is only 5% of the total image size.

It's not a frog - exotic or otherwise.

A Green Insect? - That's a bit like saying the Hippo in a previous post was a grey animal!

or a green butterfly.

or maybe it really is lime zest like the image filename.

I can't argue with the colour ... it is most definetly green.
However, it isn't a beetle, a grasshopper or a butterfly.

Lime Zest? I didn't think you'd fall for that

Next image. It's a different photo but the same object.
