    Your eyes see what your brain expects to see ?

    This may seem a strange place for this picture, but once you see the thing you are looking for, maybe it will make sense. To me, it seems somehow connected with hunter safety, in that your eyes see what you are expecting to see in a given situation.

    Are you talking about the dog or the guy feeling up the Sheila In the fifth row?

    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    It is far more complex than your brain seeing what it expects to see.

    The eye is only focused in a very small section of the view your brain bulids and also there is the 'blind spot' where the optic nerve enters the rear of the eye. Your brain just 'paints in' the bits that are not clear and/or fills them in from previous scans of that section of the view, This is why people 'see' waht is not there and do not 'see'' stuff that is there but has not been scanned ver recently.

    The really unusual thing is that some seem to be paying attention.
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!

    I suspect you are correct Gibo. I does fuck with your eyesight though.

    That one got me because I was deliberately trying to block out every thing but the white shirted players.

    And the dog was the first thing I saw basically.
