Anyone who can spot more than four faces hidden within the image, posted by Art Country Canada is said to have 20/20 vision.
The first four faces are reasonably easy to spot, as they are far bigger and clearer than the other ones.
If you are struggling to find the faces, try holding the picture further away, or squinting your eyes.
Amongst the rocks, there are two faces on the left hand side of the image, one at the bottom, and and a third to the right of the horses.
If you cast your eyes to the right of the picture you should see two more faces, across from the face at the bottom.
There are two green faces next to each other made up of rocks and grass.
If you peer closely at the treeline, you should spot four faces in a row.
The last three faces are the trickiest of all to spot, as they are much smaller, and made up from the other faces.
Amongst the row of trees at the back, there is a smaller face squeezed onto the painting.
If you look to the left of the white horse you should spot another small face, and to the right of the picture, the spindly white branches make up the outline of a face.
