I feel really dumb, but I have never even noticed the boats. In the reversed I see them very clearly, but in the original the wave is completely dominating the view (now I see the boats of course, but my focus is completely on the wave by default).
- shepherdjerred 2y agoMe too! I'd only ever noticed the waves
- plasma_beam 2y agoEven dumber, I never noticed Mt. Fuji was in the pic, focus was truly on the wave.
- msephton 2y agoIn some prints Fuji is coloured to look like a small wave (my personal preference) but in later prints is coloured differently to stand out.
- twelvechairs 2y agoWorth noting the color of the boats varies from white to yellow to dark brown in the various prints, so sometimes they appear far more obviously than others.
- albert_e 2y agoI am in the same ..err ...boat. I am now convinced there is a strong element of left-to-right versus right-to-left in the way we process images. Fascinating!
- edanm 2y agoThis happened to me too! I'm not sure if it's the left-to-right thing though, that sounds a bit unlikely to me. Specifically that it's tied to the language we use. (For the record I probably default to reading left-to-right, though I also read and write in Hebrew which is RTL.)
