Line of sight
Answer revealed, winner: Sisyphus, scroll down comments for answer. Most creative answer: Bubs: Blurred image of 5 columns of vidya mandir students standing in attention singing 'Shanta kaaram bujaga sayanam' during the school assembly. It would have to be some serious blurring for the above to work, though ;)Identify. Use the detail in the image. The key to cracking photo puzzles is analysis of shades, shapes and sizes relative to each other. That's why I don't distort these images.
3 guesses / person / day.

1. this is some vaykka-varappu in some cook gramam in south india..
those silvery lines are water canals dug alongside the field
2. its a watermelon hidden behind nondescript shrubbery. macro photography or whatever else they call those close up shots
3. its some annual airshow and those are 5 old biwing planes releasing a plume of white smoke as they fly low in formation
these will suffice for the day
>catcharun: guess number 1 will compete with future bubs' creative guesses. thanks for the smiles, keep guessing.
Catcharun is right arnie!!
Thats the vaykka varappu where Ramarajan with his pink shirt and yellow shirt with matching pink lipstick danced with heroine kanagaa in the film "Naan daan paalkaran"
My guesses:
1.Water flowing out of sluice gates?
2.Does that seem like a river flowing underneath a series of bridges?
3.I don't know, maybe an interference pattern from Young's double slit experiment?
Those are poly tunnels.
Lakshman Jhoola, Rishikesh
Main entrance gate to Music Academy,large iron rods prevent entry of cattle
It's dogs at the finish line of a dog race.
The blur, I'm guessing is something going very fast.
Kumutti aduppu.I'm done with this.....
Cement tiles placed across a field?
First guess:
Blurred image of 5 columns with a set of playing cards going down one after another
Second guess:
Blurred image of 5 columns of vidya mandir students standing in attention singing 'Shanta kaaram bujaga sayanam' during the school assembly.

>Bubs: wonderful guess on the vidya mandir assembly :) but nope. the tamil actors costume thing is getting old though.
>shoe fiend: poly tunnels ? what are those ?
>sai: ur first two guesses r closer, but still a ways to go.
>meghna,ammani: nope
>anu: ur guess is the closest, but not there yet.
This is Arlington National Cemetry, right?
I would have guessed cemetry, but considering the blogger's past.... I am venturing a sharper guess.
i think sisyphus has it but here are 3 more that are probably a bit further from the answer than those white strips are from each other
1. you are looking at someone's slightly open window blinds through the branches of a tree..that would make you a peeping tom and this probably a wrong answer
2. really close closeup of a cobweb strung across branches on a tree..the shimmering silk like quality of the white threads is quite obvious
3. fireworks display. the individual sparks coming down captured with a long exposure time would cause them to appear so..i have no idea what i said but does it sound technical enough to warrant brownie points
My first impression of this was a little more refined version of catcharun's first guess. A huge crop field (some kind of crop). The long silvery lines are rolls of crops either harvested or ready to be planted.
Sisyphus has it. Rosecrans National Cemetery in San Diego, similar to Arlington N.C. but cemetery was what I was looking for. Were u in any way influenced by Anu's 'cement block' answer ?
The block outlines are quite clear on the left extreme row. Shadows of tree give a sense of scale.
Welcome to the points, Sisyphus !
man, what a let down..i really thought they were albino eyelashes.
sorry alpha, bubs beat u to the creative answer, but next time, i shall wait for ur inputs :)
Hey, cool! I wouldnt have thought of a cemetery in a million years...but i still can't make the outlines of the tombstones(that's what they are,right?).
PS. Don't u guys allow non-bloggers to the site xyfactor? Cool questions...
>sai: xyfactor is right up ur alley. email me and i will get u added.
I agree, Bubs' was the funniest!
