These two photos are of the same sculpture. They provide an example as to why "eye-witness" testimony is so unreliable (especially in a criminal trial where lives are at stake). What we "see" depends upon where we stand, the light, the complexity of the subject, and what our mind wants to see. Photographs can also be unreliable when it comes to getting the "real" picture.

Very peculiar!
It is interesting how the piece looks to be 2 different sizes in the pics. So I would be saying the one suspect is 5 ft tall and the other one is 6.5 ft! I like them both, Lowell!
It's a great example of point-of-view, which I discovered was easier to teach tom adolescents by using images such as this.
So colorful and different!! Love it!! Hope you have a great weekend!!
Different, but colorful and they will surely attract attention!! Fun shots!
That's fun!
Good point made even better with these two shots. I couldn't believe they were the same sculpture at first!
This is fascinating...and so colourful!
Interesting idea here. The sculpture appears much larger (to me) in the second shot. In any case, I love the use of shapes and color.
Funny and colorful, I quite like this!
I like the text and the images.
Wisdom together with happy colours and interesting shapes.
They are not good pictures of me, even on my worst day.
Very true! I that top photo I see a cowboy with a big ten gallon hat and in the bottom photo I see a young person raising a hammer. Two different things!
You are so right.

Q.E.D :)
Regardless of the philosophical point, it is kind of ugly.
Excellent point. Why am I not surprised this piece is on a college campus?
Great example of wyt we can see the same thing but not see the same thing. :)
So cool!
