Like chameleons and octopuses, things we see every day can disguise and change themselves to look completely different. Sure, sometimes a different perspective is needed but it changes all the same.
This list highlights this ability, showing cool pics of ordinary things that are almost unrecognizable.

Every time I’m reminded of the tiny, tiny sweat glands on our fingertips, I’m uncomfortable for the rest of the day. Eugh.
“This moss covered stump that looks like a tiny log cabin.”
Hey, it’s not nice to take photos of peoples’ houses without their permission. Now go apologize to the sprite that lives in there.
“[…] a candle being blown out.”
Who knew that if you get close enough, smoke just looks like sand? Okay, maybe you knew, but I didn’t and I find it interesting.
“A few people said you might like my pizza dough.”
From dough that looks nothing like dough to dough that looks too much like dough! Too perfect, it’s uncanny.

It looks scarier than expected but also pretty, well, toasty!
“[…] my friends in a torrential downpour.”
Rain, you say? They’re not stuck in asphalt? Alright, if you’re sure.

More things wading in water, but this one actually looks like water. The pitch doesn’t look like a pitch though, more like some sort of abandoned portal.

If you look in the distance, you can see the rumored moon power lines they’ve installed so the colonies will have power.

Aw! He absolutely doesn’t look like a stingray anymore but he is still pretty cute. Chomping on some lettuce, staying healthy, good for him!

This incredibly detailed shot of a blueberry.
Right, a ‘blueberry’ and not ‘alien planet with unique flora and mountain formation.’ Sure.

Something about this is a little terrifying. I don’t mean to alarm you, but your dog is being eaten by clouds.
“[…] inside my washing machine.”
Because of this photo, I was reminded to go turn my laundry over. Thanks!
