Have you ever seen a photo that was so perfectly timed you had to glance it more than once? Usually, those images are by happenstance, which makes them even more incredible. But once in a while, someone comes across an opportunity that’s just too good to pass up.
These 68 photos are some of the best perfectly timed ones currently on the internet. Get ready to feel entertained, bewildered, mesmerized, and stunned all at once.
1. Hit or miss?
After tossing a potato chip, this pup’s owner was able to snap a photo at just the right time. The only question — did he catch in it his mouth or did it fall to the floor. Either way, you can bet this dog enjoyed the treat.

2. Twisted sense of humor
Let’s hope this is merely a pond on someone’s private property and that the shoes are the only crocodiles living in the water. If not and someone decides to take a dip, they’re going to be in for a rude awakening.

3. Fire Goddess
This photo is super cool. It’s kind of like making images out of clouds but this time, it was with fire. We have to admit, this is pretty phenomenal.

4. Simply breathtaking
This is one of those images you’d expect to see on the cover of the National Geographic magazine. The way the sun shines through this bird’s wings makes this photo captivating.

5. “I’ve got it”
The look of determination on this dog’s face is awesome. Apparently, this pup likes eating snowballs. For his sake, we hope it ended up in his mouth.

6. Wow…just wow
Talk about a one-in-a-million chance of capturing a wave like this. Not only is the water amazing but also the fact that it has the reflection of the sand inside of it. It’s like nature’s work of art.

7. Moving the sun
We have no idea if someone just so happened to snap this photo at the right time or if they planned it. But either way, it’s fabulous. It appears the crane’s moving the sun to another location.

8. How ironic
Do you see it? If not, look at the man and then the black and white sticker on the woman’s laptop. The two of them look identical even down to the earphones.

9. Great timing
The person who made these cups of cappuccino didn’t deliver them to the customer with lopsided foam. Instead, a woman’s sister snapped this photo just as someone bumped their table.

10. Try it…you’ll like it
This sweet orangutan has the best of intentions. She’s offering food to this pup. But by the look on his face, he’s just not into bananas.

Imgur
11. Goofing around
Look, any time you get a bunch of teenage boys together, you can expect some mischievous behavior. Case in point…this photo. Thankfully, whoever took it had perfect timing.

Imgur
12. What are those?
Speaking of boys being boys. It seems they’re even mischievous when really young. In all fairness to this tot, he might’ve been looking at something else. But even if he wasn’t, this photo is cute because it’s innocent.

13. Davy Jones
There’s nothing out of the ordinary here. Just a man who looks a lot like Davy Jones from the Pirates of the Caribbean fishing on a lake. Oh wait, that’s not his face but a fish. This is pretty cool.

Reddit/Krewd
14. Whoops
In this 1993 photo, a big sister is just about to drop her baby sibling. The look on her face says it all. In the meantime, mom doesn’t even seem to notice.

Reddit/THEsneezedmeatball
15. My, what cute legs you have
At first glance, this looks like a beautiful cat wearing a green tutu. But when you look closer, you’ll see that’s not the case at all. One thing’s certain, this kitty doesn’t like having her photo taken.

16. The Plaid Shirt Club
At this bar in Portland, you’re not allowed to enter unless you’re wearing a red and black plaid shirt. Okay, we’re kidding, but it does kind of look that way.

Reddit/Stevenomics
17. The truth revealed
All your life, you heard there was a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. In reality, the only thing you’ll find is a dog bowl and even worse, it’s empty. They lied to you.
Source:
Pikabu
18. The Flying Dutchman
While the story about the pot of gold was false, it appears the one about the Flying Dutchman is true. Well, looks can be deceiving. This perfectly timed photo is a ship on the water but with the fog, it appears to be flying.

Imgur
19. Mirror, mirror, on the…car
This little bird must’ve had a hot date. With the rain and all, she had to quickly find a mirror to make sure her wet feathers weren’t messed up. You look gorgeous, darling.
Source:
Imgur
20. Magical power
In this photo, it looks as though the groom is forcing other suitors away. But this is an incredible photo op involving his groomsmen. Although you can figure out how they did it, it’s still cool.

21. Simple yet breathtaking
Isn’t it amazing how taking a photo of a dandelion with the sunset as the backdrop can be so magnificent? This photo is beautiful enough to frame and hang as artwork in a home or business.
Source:
Reddit/mrblahblahblah
22. Fireball
The first thing you might think of when looking at this photo is that a transformer blew, setting the tree on fire. But it’s actually just the sunlight hitting the only area of the tree with leaves.

Reddit/Raging_Gamer14
23. Can you guess correctly?
You have three options. This photo is of a black crow, bunny, or cat. If you guessed a cat, you’re right. But because of the way it’s sitting, it could easily pass as one of the other two animals.

24. Some day my prince will come
You know the story…a pretty girl kisses a toad and it turns into her handsome prince. Well, in this photo, the frog kissed the woman. Unfortunately for both of them, nothing exciting happened.

25. Gotcha
Both men and women in the military have huge responsibilities. So, sometimes they have to let loose. In this instance, the co-pilot felt the serviceman on the ground needed a little cooling off.

Imgur/Ass2mouth
26. A stowaway or dinner?
Perhaps this fly was tired of flapping its wings so it hitched a ride with this wasp. On the other hand, the wasp might’ve just snatched its dinner. Sorry all you insect lovers but we don’t think this was a stowaway situation.
Source:
Reddit/the_panda0704
27. What a cool kite
That’s what this photo appears to be when you first look at it. But it’s a gorgeous owl coming in for a landing. The timing of this image gives you a new perspective of how these magnificent birds use their wings.

Reddit/raccoonteur
28. What is that?
A tiny bubble was all it took for this dog to make the most incredible face. As he stares straight at it, he’s either surprised or scared. Who cares about the bubble, we’re fascinated with those stunning blue eyes.

Reddit/selektor2017
29. Covert message
Is this guy asking someone to call 911? Is he in trouble? No…he’s just perfectly positioned so the word “help” on the projector screen displayed across his forehead.
Source:
Reddit/diggadiggadee
30. Snow fingers
The way this photo was shot, it appears as those fingers made of snow are clutching the rocks, keeping them in position. But it’s the stone archway that’s holding the snow up. Fantastic image.

31. Nemo’s shock
Okay, this photo was taken all in fun. This perfectly timed image makes it look as though Nemo just saw more than water, algae, and other fish.
Source:
Imgur
32. Full of holes
While being sprayed with a celebratory bottle of champaign, it appears as though the liquid is going right through this man and exciting out multiple holes. Then again, the champaign looks kind of like milk. This photo is cool yet confusing.
Source:
Imgur
33. Trained him well
At least that’s probably what the men on the beach think about this pup’s owner. On the other hand, this female might not agree. Hopefully, she was able to stop what would’ve otherwise been a very embarrassing moment.
Source:
Imgur
34. Balancing act
How in the world did they get this car to stand up on its end on a lake? Well, they didn’t. The person behind the camera snapped this photo milliseconds before the car entered the water.
Source:
Imgur/jlarroc
35. Street tubing
If you’re going to drive through a flooded street, at least do what this guy did. Have an applicable advertisement on your vehicle. We bet sales skyrocketed after this image went viral. After all, look at how much fun those people are having.

Reddit/Mocomedia
36. Rescue the kitty
Quick, someone needs to get the cat out of the can of paint. Alright, all animal lovers, there’s no kitty. Just paint swirls that look one.
Source:
Reddit
37. Beam me up, Scotty
Either this man is getting ready to board the Starship Enterprise or aliens have attacked. Then again, he might just be standing beneath a light with a beam directed on him. You be the judge.

38. Awesome iPhone case
Today, you can find all kinds of super cool cases for both androids and iPhones. Here’s one example. The only problem…this isn’t a case all but water with bath bombs added inside a tub.

Tumblr/narkote
39. Strutting his stuff
People act as though they’ve never seen a dog walking on the beach before. He’s not harming anyone…just looking manly on his hind legs and the coolest hairdo ever.
Source:
Reddit/gsuberland
40. It’s time for new reading material
From the looks of it, this book is a little bit too advanced for such a young girl. Even though she can’t even read yet, it looks like it’s having an effect. It’s time to go back to Dr. Seuss.
Source:
Imgur
41. It goes on for miles
Okay, so that’s an exaggeration but his arm does look abnormally long. Fortunately for him, it’s just the angle but it makes for a very impressive image.
Source:
Imgur
42. That’s impressive
We never knew dogs had wings but this photo shows they do. Or at least, it shows they do when there’s a massive seagull trailing behind.
Source:
Reddit/LostinTheJapan
43. Having a bad day
And who could blame this car. It’s cold outside and covered in snow. You can’t blame it…all it wants is its owner to move to a warmer climate. In the meantime, it’s going to let everyone know it’s not happy.
Source:
Reddit/Mouse1234567890
44. Who’s the scaredy-cat?
It’s hard to tell if the mouse if more afraid of the dog or vise versa. If it’s the dog, hopefully, none of his canine buddies will see this photo or he’ll become the laughingstock of the neighborhood.
Source:
Reddit
45. Coolest mask ever
But it’s not a mask. If that thing landed on anyone’s face other than this kid, they’d be freaking out. For some reason, this little boy finds the situation comical.

Reddit/sebbysir
46. Secrete exposed
That’s why this team keeps winning. Even when making the most difficult plays, they always come out on top. But this photo reveals their “ace in the hole.” An invisible player. Pretty clever.

Reddit/bkshahi
47. Interesting pizza
Initially, this looks kind of like some unique pizza concoction. But one bite and you’d know it’s not even close. Nope, those are mineral rocks and they’re not tasty nor good for the teeth.

Reddit/chiggo
48. Bird bullying
And don’t think no one noticed…it’s all caught on camera. We even see you kicking this poor feathered guy. Try sharing next time.
Source:
Imgur
49. New Dachshund breed?
That’s the only thing we can figure out. After all, that’s one super long dog. Then again, it might be two dogs. What’s your opinion?
Source:
Imgur
50. Open wide and say “ah”
Is this a fish getting ready to have its teeth examined? Nope. It’s just a mackerel with its mouth open. Who knew that’s what the inside looked like? It doesn’t even seem real.
Source:
Reddit/TheBreezes
51. Missed it by that much
We’re sure they were aiming for this person’s mouth yet somehow, it ended up inside their ear. Maybe that’s how they prefer to drink alcoholic beverages. Perhaps it tastes better. We have no clue and don’t plan to find out.
Source:
Reddit/snp3rk
52. The lineup
Considering it’d be hard to get a dog to coordinate his white line with the foam of the ocean, this has to be one of those rare photo opportunities.

Reddit/tortugatuba
53. Dentist driver
With a perfect molar formed in snow on this car’s back window, it has to belong to a dentist. Otherwise, there’s just no explanation.

54. Magnificent colors
A guy and his girlfriend walking in the woods saw this and snapped a photo. The rainbow colors reflecting off the water are truly majestic. That’s one lucky couple.

Reddit/brentenross
55. Romeo and Juliet…
…of the feline kind. Hey, when you love someone as much as this cat loves his girl kitty, you’ll do whatever it takes to see them. Even if that means climbing up a window screen.
Source:
Imgur
56. Who’s she staring at?
The people on this subway might’ve felt a little creeped out having the woman across them constantly staring at them without blinking. That’s until they realized the truth. Even that’s a little creepy.
Source:
BP
57. Sea monster
It might look that way at first but upon closer inspection, you’ll notice it’s nothing but the waves crashing up over a rock on the beach. That’s a great photo, especially with the large formation in the background.
Source:
Reddit/MrWiggleit
58. Run…the aliens are coming
If you judged the photo alone, that might be your first thought. But if you were there in person, you’d be doing a lot of “wow’s” and “awe’s” because this is nothing more than a firework going off.
Source:
Imgur
59. It’s on the tip of his tongue
That’s what it looks like, a hawk getting ready to swallow the sun. But again, this is a perfectly timed photo that’s made a lot of people smile.
Source:
Reddit/HappyChilledDude
60. Where did it go?
This guy’s missing the entire top of his head. In reality, he simply moved over to get a different angle. That’s when the sun created an unusual effect. Whew, that’s good to know.
Source:
Reddit/dhruveishp
61. Photobomb
If you’re going to photobomb someone, this is the way to do it. But, there’s just one issue. This creature didn’t even have the decency to smile.
Source:
Imgur
62. A beautiful tiger painting
Like a lot of other people, that might be what you thought when first looking at this photo. But it’s a live tiger shaking water off its body. Whoever captured this did a great job.
63. Why so small?
You’d think a man with a large bald head would choose a hat that fit. Perhaps he’s a Laurel and Hardy fan. Or maybe it’s a decoration on the outside of the train? We’re going with the latter option.

64. “I see Paris, I see France, I see someone’s underpants”
Man, one breeze and this guy takes advantage of a situation. What’s even worse? He’s not even human.
Source:
Imgur
65. Stop…right there
This military man appears to have some kind of magical power. Somehow, he stopped a dolphin in mid-air. Honestly, we can’t explain this photo other than to say it’s amazingly cool.
Source:
Imgur
66. Stunning sea life
There are so many things living in the ocean that people don’t even know about. But this one they do. It’s an octopus with a gorgeous display of color. What a beautiful creature.
Source:
Reddit/JMyers666
67. It’s either…
…a bearlephant or a beareagle. The first option would be a breed of animal that’s both bear and elephant. The second, a bear and an eagle. Well, sorry to disappoint you, it’s merely a bird landing on the water directly behind a bear.

68. The levitating kiss
When this fox jumped, an individual snapped a photo. The result made it appear as though the one fox was levitating while trying to give the other fox a kiss.
