It’s there lurking in plain sight 👀

Spotting danger before anyone else is definitely a skill worth bragging about. 
Let’s be honest—finding the great white shark in this photo is no easy task, even when you’re given a hint about where it is hiding. The waves, the lighting, and the natural camouflage of the ocean make it even trickier to spot.Having sharp vision is something to be proud of, but if you can locate the shark almost immediately, you might want to reconsider your career—because, wow, that’s some serious visual talent!

A breathtaking aerial photo showing a boat, some surfers, and a great white shark lurking beneath the waves has been making the rounds on Reddit. Users have been testing their eyesight and celebrating when they successfully find the shark.

article class=”atd”>These types of visual challenges have been circulating on social media for a long time, with countless people testing their ability to find hidden objects in images.

In fact, there’s even a whole Reddit community dedicated to this kind of thing called ‘Find the Sniper.’

If you manage to spot the shark instantly, you might just have what they call ‘sniper vision.’

Who knows? Maybe your country could use your eagle-eyed skills in surveillance or security!

The post encouraged users to take on the challenge, with the caption: “Shark attacks are rising in Australia. Technology is helping stop them.’”

The location of the shark isn’t immediately obvious—hence the challenge—and the movement of the water adds another layer of difficulty.Even those who pride themselves on having a keen eye might struggle at first.

So, be honest—can you see it?

Some users claimed it was super easy to spot. If, like me, you found yourself staring at the image in confusion, let’s just assume those people were exaggerating. Yup, that explanation works just fine.

One Reddit user shared their experience: “Found the Great White, took me a few seconds, had to look at the same spot a couple of times, just to make sure that’s what I was seeing, it was. This one was fun”Another chimed in with their thoughts: “This was unnerving, the ocean is so beautifully frightening.”

And a third added their perspective: “Growing up in Florida and flying over ponce inlet regularly. I was able to spot this almost immediately.”

While many were focused on spotting the shark, others took the opportunity to discuss real-life encounters with these ocean predators.One user shared insights on sharks approaching surfers and how these situations often unfold.

They explained: “We have juveniles that cruise our coast. Bites are sporadic and usually during elephant seal pup season when the locals are mistaken because of the surfboard. aren’t fat enough to bother with.”

Another added their thoughts: “Gotta love the oceans apex predators. The other off our local shores are Biggs Orca, who are smart enough GG to know better.”

Personally, I’m not too worried about failing to find the shark—I’ll just take that as a sign to stay out of the ocean altogether. Problem solved.But for those feeling brave, or just determined to prove their ‘sniper vision’ skills, here’s a hint: the shark is positioned near the top of the image, just above the boat, slightly toward the left side.
