I guess some people thought it was AI, but just a cool moment in my basement window well.

Edit: taken with my iPhone several years ago since that’s all I had with me when it happened so quickly.

TIL what a window well is. I would honestly love to see what it looks like from outside. Is there some kind of covered up grate on top?

Here it is several years later. It’s an office that I rent. The landlord apparently does not care about maintaining the windows.

I was so confused by the image initially as I hadn't seen a window well that deep before. This follow-up picture made it all click, thanks for sharing.

I mean this looks like a window exhibit at a museum, very fascinating.
