June 22nd, 2008 |

There are 12 differences between the 2 pictures below: can you spot them all?

(click on photo to view in high resolution)

I think this one is a bit harder than earlier spot the difference puzzles we posted…

Will keep any submitted answers under wraps until Tuesday, thanks.

I think I won.
I just circled them in my favourite image editing program and uploaded it to a trusted image hosting website.

I think I missed one, as I believe the top-left-most one is barely noticable, and may be a side effect from the photographer photoshop skillz.

As we look at it, the second photo has:
1. The name of the train as FOOTSIE (not TOOTSIE)
2. Wording below says “STAEM” (not STEAM)
3. Front grill has a further bar in the middle
4. Red Metalwork above the grill has 2 LESS holes on right.
5. The sloped black metalwork above the red part has no emblem (cirble with a ring) on the right.
6. The steam outlet on the top of the train is positioned further forward
7. To the left of the front top light there is no metal bar visible
8. The tree on the left is smaller
9. There are no clouds on the right.
10. Thge train has 4 bigger wheels (rather than 3)
11. Nearer the back of the engine on the top there is no
whistle outlet (gold coloured and two of them- I think its the whistle )
12. There is no hose running top to bottom along the right of the train.

woah, tough one.
1) Trees in background are changed
2) Brass fitting on top of the engine is missing
3) Diagonal copper pipe is absent above walkway (but the shadow is still there! ha!)
4) logo missing from front right
5) hole in right of red plate filled in
6) gap in middle of grill filled in
7) extra drive wheel added at rear (which obscures some of the mechanics, but I don’t think that counts as a separate change)
cloud is gone
9) the smokestack moved forward

And three more things that are probably really easy and I’ll kick myself for not catching them the first time around.

Very nice job, Falwan’s. Your image upload got em all.

zzzdude is close, I think you got 11/12.

Lograh was fairly close also;

bobg, joe, and sharrey2 got them all too with a list of nice descriptive answers.

Good job

Crazy, all three I missed were right up front! Two of them were the only two word-based differences, also — I wonder if that says anything.

Cheat techniques for (perhaps) all find the difference puzzle.

1. Save and Open the picture in Adobe Photoshop
2. Duplicate the Background Layer
3. Move the duplicated layer so that the first picture overlaps the second picture.
4. Go to layer Blending Options for the duplicated layer.
5. Set the general bending mode to Difference
6. Set the Effects to Color Overlay with Blend mode to Linear Dodge, Color White and Opacity 28%.

You will clearly see the difference! enjoy..
