What do u see !?

A photo posted by Beautiful Planet Earth (Facebook page) that has been shared by my friends which made me curious to click into it and see what is the photo actually mean......all this while, I been having my own perception of this photo which I thought the cause of misty KL- is from the chinese prayers during chinese new year ! and i keep wondering why the others are posting such thing ?! I even thought the beautiful planet earth page was like a sarcasm page name of our behavior... 

But after clicking into it, I only realised is actually praising of the shot itself from that angle......

Well, I wonder what others point of view then !? 

Minimalist effect in the Maximalist Market

Here's a webpage i find their design is quite cool....
Like what the title has said, 'the Designers Antrepo have created conceptual packaging design for well-known supermarket products by stripping back the existing graphics in stages'
They even ask the reader which choice they will pick. So, what's yours ? :D

What is your choice in these 3 different variations?
1. Original variation
2. Simple variation
3. More simple variation
