What's going on in this pic?

Hi there, hope I'm not annoying anyone. But I was listening to this awesome album again, Moonmadness by camel, and started looking at the album cover art. Here, check it out.

I always thought it was someone staring at the sun, but when you look at it closely, it's pretty disproportioned to be just one person, unless in a weird position. Anyway, I'm confused. What does the image say to you?

Two people with their arms around one another looking at the moon. As in moon madness I guess.

I could've sworn it was some sort of polar bear cub lying on a rock...

I see it as moss on a couple of boulders, shaped to resemble a camel's hump. Not sure though... but it's very interesting artwork, and very pretty!

to me it looks like a girl sitting on the top of a hill or edge of a cliff with her arm around a dog, her hair blowing in the wind.

It's pretty clearly Mr. Snuffleupagus.

Emerald · Tue 26/02/2008 13:20:37

Damn, that's uncanny.

...
Do you compare every picture to Mr. Snuffleupagus, or is this an astonishing coincidence?

Baron · Tue 26/02/2008 13:37:12

All things being equal, it's usually a productive starting point.

Sorry, but it's obviously a Depressed Penis wearing a wig.

About ready to jump off a cliff.

It looks like a girl, with her back to the viewer, holding a sack or something that catches the wind. Her legs are dangling from the cliff(?), and she seems to be facing a bit to the right (her right).

@ tuomas, I just snatched some moonmadness on YouTube , and would like to say thank you for increasing my musical range

That really is some neat album.

And I thought I was the only one who sees this.

Emerald · Tue 26/02/2008 19:20:12

There's no way that's a girl. How could she be so skinny yet have so many rolls of flab?

I'm inclined to agree with the misshapen penis theory...

Glad you liked it Ghost

I love this specific album. But the variety of interpretations that we get here is exactly my point here

Though thank you Gord10, I now see that it might look like two people, the other one in a weird positiong with no arms and hidden under the hair of the other. Or something :S

BOYD1981 · Tue 26/02/2008 21:35:46

well whatever it is - i think i've found it's face...

Oliwerko · Tue 26/02/2008 23:05:08

For what bloody reason do you think that there actually IS SOMETHING in the picture? Does it necessarily need to be something?
