About the picture
One window glows orange and a thin line of smoke rises from the chimney, so the stove is clearly lit. The cabin is small in the frame and the night is large around it: drifts shaped by the wind, a dark edge of spruce forest, and aurora ribbons with a magenta lower fringe.
Computer-generated scene; it does not show a specific real place.
How to approach these sliding tiles
Sliding puzzles are solved from the top down: finish the first row, then the second, and keep them intact. Top rows of this picture: the night sky.
Tiles with clear detail are easy to recognise by eye: the lit window, the chimney smoke, the log cabin. Where tiles look alike, switch on the numbers (the # button) — the gap always ends in the bottom-right corner.
Picture character
Large areas of nearly one tone — a slow, absorbing puzzle. A smaller size makes a good warm-up. Demanding →
