This image was taken in the town of Pomeroy Washington.

As a child I had frequent nightmares of the Jolly Green Giant chasing me and yelling that he was going to eat me because I had been eating his children with my dinner. As I got older the nightmares stopped, but were not forgotten.
My husband and I had gone to see a concert in Seattle and on the way back while driving through Pomeroy Washington, out of the corner of my eye and old abandoned building caught my attention. I had my husband pull over so I could take a closer look.
As soon as I entered it I had an overwhelming feeling of Déjà vu, I knew I had been there before, and it gave me the creeps. I took some photos headed for home.
Not far from the creepy building we stopped at a convince mart for gas, I asked the cashier if she know what the old building use to be. She informed me that it was the old Jolly Green Giant packing plant.
When we got home I called my older brother to tell him of my weird afternoon and asked him if he remembered me having the nightmares about the Jolly Green Giant. He laughed and laughed. He then informed me that when I was around two or three years old, my dad had built a warehouse next to the old abandoned plant and when visiting the job site he took me in and told me that the Giant was after me because I ate his babies for dinner.

Giant Hogweed can reach a height of 7 metres (23 ft). A native of Central Asia, it has now spread perniciously along riverbanks in Europe, USA & Canada. The sap of Giant Hogweed causes phytophotodermatitis in humans, resulting in blisters, long-lasting scars and blindness. (5 years and 3017 days ago)

That stuff is NASTY!!! Our neighbor had some in their backyard, near our yard. Somehow it mysteriously disappeared - some suspected about three years of consistent poisoning by someone.

I'm a little confused about the "or not" part and rbsgrl's comment about it being a great illusion. What am I missing here?

author says:

Its one of those shots where one object is close and one is far so it looks like the jellyfish is the size of the human. You have to have an imagination to see stuff like that sometimes.
