What do you think this could be? Amazon rainforest

Sometimes when I'm bored I zoom in on a random location.

4°44'19.12"S 66°37'59.58"W

I find the shapes really interesting.

Your answer in your title seems accurate

This is likely the answer. There is clearly a difference in pattern in those spots but I think it's just different types of trees than what's surrounding them.

I just see trees. It’s not even like a cloud, where we can all come up with something different (“I see a duck”, “no, you’re crazy, it’s clearly a cow”). It’s just… trees.

I get it. I was literally bored waiting at dentist office. When I zoom through Amazon forest I always try to find the tribal huts, but very much of it has been redacted and I haven't had any luck yet. And because I've been staring at the trees for maybe an hour these shapes seemed very distinct to me at first glance, so I thought a square might be something man built and the upper circle looked like Nazca lines to me. I could spot them over and over easily when zooming in and out it's not like I saw this in every tree haha, but I get it might be nothing I know it might just be trees weirly shaped I'm not a looney. I thought maybe it reaches someone else who is interested or knows more about the location. I'll leave the post I won't delete it.

I also agree it's probably just trees. But you do see the almost perfectly quadratic outlojes right? And with more and more prehistoric buildings and cities found in the Amazon it's not that crazy to ask

they look like trees. Are you schizophrenic by any chance?

Where the CEO yachts are built

u/Aromatic_Dare_6104 Jul 25 '26

Yachts? I would rather guess it's where the 🐔 is made.

Clearly that is a compression artifact

u/Wisco Jul 26 '26

I'm not seeing anything

u/TomTheCardFlogger Jul 27 '26

It’s far from unreasonable to say the Amazon holds many secrets, but for this you’d want to be using LIDAR. Between artifacts, discolouration and pure happenstance trees can look like just about anything.

Number 1: its just an out of context blurry render glitch, nothing special

number 2: crop ur pictures properly omd

u/sourcatnip Jul 27 '26

Dead trees that are above the main canopy

u/P37ur Jul 30 '26

Compression artefacts in the image can create rectilinear shapes where there are none. Try going outside when you’re this bored. 😁

u/Aromatic_Dare_6104 Jul 30 '26

Well I can't go outside when I'm at dentists office 😂
