Okay, I know I’m a hopeless rock hound (remember the rock my son brought me recently that had all sorts of weird slashes in it that made the shape of a rabbit?) and space geek (saw this image, and others like it, while perusing the Hubble Site today as the shuttle Atlantis is currently servicing the giant telescope for the last time) but as this flashed by on my screen, I get the distinct sense that the Great Rabbit of the Cosmos is speaking to me. ^_^
How about you? Do you see the rabbit? (sorry, I’d upload the pix, but not only would that be copyright infringement, but they are way too big to post here)
I didn’t see it in the first picture. But as soon as I saw the 2nd one I totally saw it! Now I can see it in the first one
.
omg me too miyuki! thats so funny… lol
the first pic looks like a very disapproving lop to me- and the 2nd picture looks like the classic “chocolate bunny” pose (standing up). So I think that I see bunnies!
I can see TWO bunnies in the first picture! The first is the silhouette of the rabbit. The second is a rabbit laying down in a loaf in the center red part. You can only see the head and dewlap and the bunny is at an angle. The eye is directly above the biggest white spot in the red section.
LOL MM! Of course the Great Rabbit of the Cosmos would happen to be a loppy wouldn’t it!!! hehehhehehe!
I can see a second sort of Peepi but it looks more like a Hamster to me. Is it perpendicular to the rabbit?
Ooo! Correction! It’s an uppy ear in the second pic! Well it can be whatever you want it to be I guess.
I was going to say, jersey, it is definitely NOT a lop. We uppy eared bunny lovers know that you get to a higher cosmic plane via uppy eared bunnies. (why do you think they called antennas rabbit ears?)
It took me two tries to see it. But it’s clear in the second when I focus on the red. I first saw what looked like a fur coat completely wrapped in a circle around space. The brown edges are so much like fur. If anyone saw Lolcats today, there’s a pumpkin pie that does the same thing.
Here’s the bunny that I see in the 1st pic, in the form of a lovely paint drawing!
It’s kind of a stretch, my husband couldn’t see it when I showed it to him….

Posted it as links so it’s easier than copy and paste and by the way, I don’t see a darn thing that has to do with rabbits ![]()
Maybe after a glass of wine or something.
Here are the buns I saw, in case others can’t see them (took me reading everyone else’s desc to see them).


Thanks Mark! I couldn’t figure out where to look. The photos are fascinating though even if you don’t find the rabbit.
nice mark (who’s name i always thought was markus)
in the first one i actually saw a profile bun who was rotated so it’s belly was upwards… the ears are the shape of your buns ear to the left side of the pic, it’s nose is pointing up and there’s a nice dewlap. but i like yours better!
I thought the same thing babybunsmum about his name :~)
I saw SkyBunny too!, I was thinking ‘what a dewlap’ instead of front feet…lol
and big ol’ Dutch butt

I answer to either Markus or Mark – whichever you prefer.
I think it looks like it’s taking an upside-down bath in the first pic 😡

i added a tail for perspective haha
I saw it them as Markus drew them (lop in 1st, uppy in 2nd) and then saw uppy ear in the 1st pic afterwards. I saw it like Rachel, as if it is giving itself a face wash.
As for the hamster…it’s still there – sort of embryonic looking. I’ll try outline it but I’m crap with that stuff.
After looking at this thread again late last night, when I went to close down the pc, 2 bunnies appeared to me.
My wallpaper display had changed without my knowledge. It displayed this but was full screen and pixelated.
What the? I thought the Great Cosmic Bunny was
sending me a sign!
j/k. I worked out I’d accidently done it when trying to remove a background on a page I was reading
because it was diifficult the see the text. I must have saved it as a wallpaper by mistake.
digx… thats the bun that i saw first too! reminds me of this illusion… do you see an old lady or a young lady?

I didn’t see any of the other rabbits, but I saw this bun…

Interesting how everyone sees different things.
Hamster (maybe). Outline looked bogus so I’ll just put in some orientation arrows. Just tilt head to the right.

I also see…

Rectangles: Elephants
Large circle: Wizard, side profile
Small circle: Old crone face (longish) or a Spaniel pup…(hard to see sometimes!)
it’s official jers, you’re insane.
Actually, Markus’ second outline was exactly the rabbit I saw. I guess I should’ve stenciled it in myself, but it’s much more fun to watch y’all go bonkers trying to see what I saw. ^_^
Another one for the “Life is a Bunny” gallery.
Jeez, folks, Rorschach tests. Am I the only crazy one who had to do those in elementary school? xD lmao!

LOL!

Aw! Can’t you see them? lol
Jerz, I see the two elephants (I love elephants, btw) but I can’t see the wiz or the crone…which way are they facing? *squints*
Wizard is on a diagonal. Very thin. So imagine his pointy hat at 10 o’clock and upper body between 4 & 5 o’clock then face more in the centre.
Tilt head left for crone/pup. If I drew a line that dissected the face it would run from 11 o’c to 4-5 o’c so the chin is in the 4-5 zone.
Darkish spot near centre can be snout-like nose or puppy nose.
Ahhh! *nods* Got ’em! lolz…It’s like playing “Where’s Waldo?” *gigglesnort*
You’re good at this! ^_^
Oh…Waldo’s there… *gigglesnort* ![]()
Here’s the lolcats pix I was talking about.
And Markusdark, nice to know that’s still you. I wasn’t sure you’d changed your name or it was just another Mark who was a new member.
The drawing was the give away. ![]()

*as jersey looks carefully, she suddenly finds 7 monks crossing the Nile in a submarine. RabbitPam offers her a coat with very, very long white sleeves…*

Oh dear, what a cute cat! xD My dad’s cat was called Punkins. (he was an abyssinian, though, not a tabby) but this one reminds me of my first cat, Peanuts.
I wants wipp cremez too! >.<

Well I laughed even though the reference went straight over my head! You’ll have to give me the heads up.
Maybe I’ll go look for the restaurant at the end of the universe….j/k (complete nerd moment!) No use trying to prove I have my wits about me in this thread…too late!
Well at least I have MM as a witness.
lolz…Well you may not want to use me as a reference, Jerz…I’m still looking for the TARDIS in that picture! ^_^
*a coat with very, very long white sleeves…*
The ones that tie in the back?
…
They DO have funny farms in Australia, don’t they? xD
Ohhhhhhh! doh! hehe! Well, if I had understood what the white coat meant I might have been able to do a runner! And the 7 monks and the nile is just Pams imagination or is that from something…?
I think it just was one of those random things. Perhaps one of the elephants whispered it to her. ![]()
LOL. Well it’s been a fun thread MM. Thanks for posting it!
