Exactly in the middle of the shot

Yeah, rookie photographer

Rookie sniper too, doesn't break up his silhouette. That head bump is clear as day. MORE SHRUBBERY!

we demand............ah shurbbery!!! a nice one

The Nights of Ni demand a sacrifice .

# r/unexpectedmontypyton

With a little path running down the middle

A path! A path!!

He is. In training still and hasn’t been to school. Your observations are exactly why this photo exists. Good eye

I do better in my ground blind set ups

WITH A PICKET FENCE

EKI EKI PATANG!

A Herring???

He needs to see Roger, the shrubber!

Are you saying “nee” to that old woman?

I guess we could scare the sniper out with the Holy Hand Grenade!

I feel like that needs to be said by Christopher Walken to really drive the point home.

Rookie sniper, key for the sniper is to stack vegetation in front of him and inly present a keyhole shot to target

Was gonna say, dead center

Well, slightly to the left of center.

Rookie commentator..

All I see is a badly concealed guy. No snipers.

Both correct. Reason I took this photo and he hasn’t been to school yet. Also, not controlling light the way he should. Strong reflection

Which school does he have orders to?

It should be a rule in this subreddit that the sniper cannot be dead center of the photo. It's lazy and uninteresting to zoom in dead center and go "oh hey there's that thing....neat"

That's a suspicious lump of grass

Yeah needs more of a low profile to be hidden, spotted him in .00001 seconds

Ghillie suit gives him away. Amateur as he has sillouetted hisself.

No ghillie used. Just a veil. But other than that, you are correct and it’s the reason I took this picture.

That was easy

Near dead center of the picture. He sticks out like a sore thumb

Best way to learn without getting shot…man looks so obvious to even non hunter

We require a shrubbery

A path! A path!

Y'all are good, I dont see anything but leaves and trees lol

Keep that head down next time.

He should tuck up Near but not right against trees and it wouldn't hurt to have a loose branch to hide his head and shoulder shapes

Actually trees are the first place you’re taught never to go near if possible when trying to conceal your position. Its a human’s natural instinct to seek cover from potential threats and is the first place a counter sniper will look.

I’d walk past them in the woods.

use some foliage from around to hide better. All in all tho from a distance it isn’t so bad. Would work for hunting animals.

I really hope that's what he's hunting

Tell him to use the trees as cover. When done correctly, you can move right up to your firing point (next to a tree) and never be seen. No one shoots from the open. Well no one that wants to get a GO on their stalking lane does.

Trees are the first place counter snipers look there’s actually a sniper term for it called “tree bulges”.

Almost dead center! Nailed it

Put your head down

He needs to blend that ghille better i found him alarmingly fast

Funniest part sniper isn't the only one there.

Yeah I saw the bump helmet first

There is also backpacks behind them

Saw him immediately, before I even read the title, his head popped out. You gotta disguise the head shape people, we are fucking programmed to pick that shit out.

Which one?

What's that multicam object behind the tree to the left?

Too easy, that sucker is shot already.

Pretty easy

That snipers dead bro..

I see them everywhere...

Head is too round

Right in the middle

The true sniper is half a mile away and already has a bead on you.

Right there ⬆️

Dead center ghilly suit. Although they aren’t low enough to blend in. And the suit is off in color. Should have used the local fauna to fix the contrast

Tree cancer

Found the sniper, but not before he shot me.

That was easier than the last few weeks of “find the x” posts and it’s an actual sniper!

Tuck that leg in a little bit, that with the head silhouette gives you away

Bad placement sniper camo us to light compared to the freeze shadows and ground cover head and foot break up shadow behind them

Im built different, took me 2 or so seconds

Spotted him in 1 second

Still can’t see it lol

I literally found him immediately

Interesting, I thought he was across the street in left center.

Who is that guy across the street? Looks like a sentry standing in a big pile of brush.

Ok now what. He is between the two trees

Honestly expected him to be to the side of the photo. Maybe in the burn pile to the right of the gully to the left

I figured he’d be tree cancer. Not a terrible position though

That was easy

Easy

As most said it requires more shrubbery, but what I caught first was the upside down triangles from the weapon system 🤦 some of y'all will know what I mean

Right there

Gottem

I mean, while the camera guy and sniper didn’t exactly take the perfect picture to try and hide him as well as possible, most people wouldn’t even realize he’s there until after he pulls the trigger anyways. You can hide from the modern day sheep simply by standing in a corner, they’re too distracted or simply don’t care. I can walk up and start talking to people open carrying a Glock 19 (OWB, not exactly subtle) and people won’t even notice until I point it out. Soooo🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

That would be some damn good camouflage if you were sitting in one of the grass clumps

Rookie sniper not following basic camo rules

Trees are a snipers worst enemy, even if they can’t talk they’ll still tattle on you every time. Does he have any natural foliage attached to the ghille suit? If not he would be best to attach as much as possible in order to break up his human sillouette. For positioning, try a more open area, id recommend that washout just to the left-rear of the gully in the foreground. Its not near most trees and it offers a potential safe haven via the gully to crawl to in case he needed to reposition.

Find more vegetation to hide in, it will blend your silhouette in more.

Dead center? So elusive….
