Thread: Photo puzzle

  1. #1

    Photo puzzle

    This photo shows a woodpecker at the top of a tree, around 15m high. The puzzle is, where was the photographer when they took the photo?

    Armed with a telephoto lens he could be on nearby high ground or in a nearby building.

    Nope. I'll give two clues

    - it can be worked out using logic, so it is not a trick question or a joke
    - the subject of the photo is significant

    It's not a puzzle? The photographer was in the tree?

    I is thinking that when you said:

    - the subject of the photo is significant

    you don't mean the woodpecker, you mean the photo itself, which is a puzzle.

    If the photo is taken at the same level as the bird, the photographer could be in a tree. So it will be a monkey puzzle tree.

    Wood peckers are often found in and around monkey puzzle trees as well so this makes sence ornithilogicaly as well.

    am i right?

    nathan... just guessing really.

    ok then, take the question mark of the end of the above statement and move the comma, and you get:

    Grammar isn't perfect, but makes sense if it is a Monkey puzzle tree.
