Default What sniper?

Came across this amazing photo story about snipers. A sniper hides in each picture and you are asked to point him/her out. It is not easy. I though some might find this interesting.

Try this one.


Do you see him?

Thumbs up

With that ability to disappear I will need either movement or a strong smell
to detect anything.

Well done to say the least.

I believe our sniper is just right of the Birch trees and a little forward with his rifle barrel pointed towards the bottom of the photo.

Well, I'd never qualify as a sniper or a spotter.

If in doubt just yell CONTAAAAACT



But seriously, they are doing a great job hiding. I have seen some documentaries and interviews and they don't have an easy life in the field. But they do an outstanding and important job!

Snubbyfan, you've got me figured out right? You know that to get a "like" all you have to do is post something related to MP! Sorry for the drift...that last sniper is pretty hard to see!

Can you post the other pics Mr Trolleyguy ? There are like 5 or 6 pics in different settings. I only missed one though. It is a good thing that I hunt or I would have never spotted these guys. BTW- they are German snipers I believe. Some of the settings are amazing. Their camo technique is pretty good. When someone says find the sniper in this picture, I look for dead vegetation and horizontal lines. I also look for clumps of grass/brush etc. Now I am not the expert either by no means. I am just a simple squirrel hunter from WVA.

I must be getting old. Even with the red circle, I still don't see the first guy.

In the second I think I see a muzzle, but I wouldn't swear to it.

This is not really fair. These guys are so good that after this one I'll post a link to the article and you can read the details.

I had to think of something, the cat pictures just weren't attracting the "likes" like they used to.

One lobbed grenade and the question becomes academic.
