Match the Hist (Game)

Postby Pehpsi on Tue Mar 04, 2008 2:20 pm

A nerdy little game that none of our friends need know about...

Your goal is to match the correct Histogram with the picture it came from:

1
Image (A) Image

2
Image (B) Image

3
Image (C) Image

4
Image (D) Image

Pretty dumb, but it's all I could think of :)

The only one I can easily make out is the statue (well I think I can).

But I can say that #4 looks like it was taken from Jones Bay Wharf, or possible a ferry or water taxi in the same area, I see that view every week day.

My answer:
3-B pretty obvious based on the amount of black and gray in the image
2-D two big distributions of monotones
4-A
1-C

3 is too obvious :) But the others are trickier.

All will be revealed soon..

Hey Craig, yeah I was leaning on a railing just up a small flight of wooden stairs. Not a bad view to see everyday :)

1 - D - has slight blue color cast so you see lots of blue in shadows, full range of green, bright reds on buildings
2 - A - darks blues reds and greens bottom half of the shot, medium brights top half of shot, with red spikes for the sun light on leaves
3 - B - B&W no colors
4 - C - broad range of blues but mostly dark, medium range red/browns no dark no light, spike of all colors on right for sails etc.

Or you could view image path and look at the names, as I made the matching ones the same so I didn't get confused :)

Anyway, the answer is:

1A
2C
3B
4D

Anyone else got a game in mind?
