Only People With A Marksman’s Eyesight Can Spot The Hidden Sniper In This Photo

Reddit’s “Find The Sniper” thread challenges users to spot hidden items in images, from household items to vast landscapes. But Berlin-based photographer Simon Menner took this concept to the next level with his 2014 project Camouflage. Menner collaborated with military forces in Germany, Latvia, and Lithuania to capture real snipers expertly blending into natural and urban environments.

The project showcases the incredible skill of military snipers, who are trained to remain unseen even in plain sight. Menner’s images, ranging from snowy fields to dense forests, invite viewers to test their observation skills and spot the hidden snipers.

One standout photo features a sniper concealed in an abandoned building, blending so seamlessly with the surroundings that it takes a careful eye to spot him. With over 30 challenging images, Menner’s Camouflage offers a captivating look at military camouflage and the art of concealment, making it a thrilling visual experience for puzzle lovers and art enthusiasts alike.
