Camera facing backwards - Anyone ever do this?

My wife did it with a video camera. "Why can't I see anything? Is this thing on?" :))

On the last part of the black, I had to look 3 moves ahead to find a contradiction. I could not find a better way.

same as gator

On the last part of the black I wondered whether the arc would continue along in the same way, so I tried it and followed it to the solution. I called it solvable by logic alone since that assumption worked. Seems like a judgment call. :o)

For the last part of the black start at the top left hand corner, knowing that everything remaining was at least 2 down meant that you had something like a diagonal line, the only question is where it started.

Never done this but I like your take on it.

what is the red stuff?

acne?

I thought the red stuff would be freckles, but acne works too.

:-D Fun solve.

For the last black part you can use el on the left most column,the alternating 2's and 1's mean that anywhere the 3 were except for the top would make a 3 in the next column impossible

I did the blue, it was easy. I then went on to the red, which is where I had to use a bit of look-ahead. Once I had the red done and the rows marked off, the black was easy, needing only diagonal-line logic.

My ex-grandfather-in-law always got weird pictures because he insisted on holding the lens thing open. Many pictures had half of his finger in them. He just never comprehended that the thing he was holding open was only supposed to open when the button was pushed.
