How good are you at eyeballing?

The eyeballing game

I had to post this, after I did the hue test from another post.

Enjoy!

Kinda fun. I scored just over 6. No wonder I have crooked horizons!

2.37

for me, the hardest are the circle midpoint and finding the equal distance position within the triangles.

midpoints and triangle bisections are the easiest for me, even got 0.0 on some.

my eyesight is poor, there will be no attempts

Average error: 3.46 (lower is better)

Worst for me would be the Triangle Centre category

Total disaster. 7.26

I`m lucky I don`t hit trees while I`m walking

3, without my glasses. I guess those years of shooting paid off in some perverse way.

BTW: I'm much better at eyeballing when there are 'curves' involved - just ask my wife.

13.4 cause I had no clue what to do on the first 2 so it killed me, 163 and 23 haha.. I'm used to using Google SketchUp, I thought I was supposed to draw something.

2.97. Messed up one angle bisection badly (6.8 in comparison to 0.1 & 0.9 on the other two attempts). I'll only try again when I lose my bronze medal to someone else.

4.23. Has anyone tried this looking through a viewfinder?
