Find the Gnome

Took me about 45 seconds.

 

About the same here, had to look three times to be sure.

 

OK. Second time looking at this. The answer is obvious, but I am not certain. The gnome is:

1. stuffed in the green box in the middle of the shed
2. rolled up in one of the snowman balls
3. eaten by the dog

Post the answer in the Spring thaw! It will take me that long to find the bugger. (I'm not good at puzzles like this.)

 

Left is right

 

False! There is no gnome!

Seriously...I am not seeing it. Spoil it for me in a dm, I hate being stumped.

 

The gnome was "accidentally" vaporized by the penguinators during a misdirected "remote cooking beam" test.

 

Does it require enlarging the image?

 

Certainly makes it easier. I can't see him on my cell phone without enlarging the pic.

 

Hint....look for the gnome's hat.

 

Hat didn't help me as much as the eyes.

 

That took me way longer than it should have....

To gnome is to loveme.

 

Found it. Thanks @John Beeman for the even more hinty hint.

 

Enlarge, and look to the bottom left area.

 

Found it somewhere between 45 seconds and a minute.

Fun!
