Here Kitty Kitty

I totally love the concept of this ad, which has been made for the British Natural History Museum. If it was me, I’d be dead already because I still haven’t spot the lion as I write this. I’m intrigued for two reasons: the first one is that I still haven’t found that lion after 10 minutes of looking, which reminds me of the fact that I should go to the optician really soon. The second reason is: for a national history museum, which can be quite boring to advertise for, this ad is pretty damn good. It caught my attention and kept me looking for longer than most ads do.

    The lion is slightly above the space between “lion” and “by”.

    don’t mean to alarm you … but it took me 3 seconds
    maybe that opticion isn’t the baddest of ideas

    Haha it’s great! The lion is between letters “N” of “Lion” and “B” of “By”, just above them. Regards!

    I thought that the “orange grass” right in the foreground was actually the top of the lion’s hair. Hence the ‘you’d be dead by now’. Although I do seem to notice a lion where the others say it is too. And who said there was only one lion? But then again: I wear glasses, so…

    Yeah, you really have a problem man! It only took me half a second after scrolling down to see the lion!

    Yeah, okay, I was looking too high :) I totally didn’t see it. Now it’s so obvious that I can’t miss it either, as soon as I look at the picture it’s the first thing I see. Was fun though. :)
