Are you saying we are color blind?! I think some people are...they just can't see it yet.

We have a winner!
Congratulations to Violalee! She was sooo close on a few submissions, I had a feeling she would be the one to finally win.
The two words were WHITE and IVORY.
I will post the solution shortly.
Thanks to everyone who played.

Solution to Puzzle #5
The image shows the bus from the book, “Into the Wild” which was made into a movie.
There is a soundtrack that went with the movie. One song on that track is titled, “Wolf”. But because I thought that would be too obvious, I had to take it a step further.
I looked at the times of the songs on the soundtrack. "Wolf" was 1:32. There were two songs that were exactly 1 minute long. So I wrote on the side of the bus, 132- 32, which would equal 100 or (1:00). Then, hidden in the image, written very small, are “TOWER COLOR” and “HOUSE COLOR”. The answers to these respectively are IVORY and WHITE, and are found in those two songs that are one minute long on the soundtrack. Those two songs are "Tuolumne" and "Photograph".
IVORY and WHITE were two one-word answers that you needed to send in to win.
As usual, thanks for playing. And congratulations to Violalee!

This is Puzzle #6. I think this one should be a bit easier than the last! With all of the Tribute Hunts coming up, I just wanted to send you a message, which can be found on this funny looking guy's restaurant receipt. Once you figure it out, send your answer to me, ArtofHiddenMessages. I might not reply immediately, but do not fear, messages are timestamped, and the first one to send in a correct answer will win a wolf charm. Good Luck and always remember to have fun!

I tried to look up the lyrics for both of those songs and they both said they were instrumental…I didn’t realize there were lyrics. Congrats to the winner!!

SOLUTION TO #6 The illustration (not mine) shows the werewolf from the famous lyrics, “A Werewolf of London”. If you just look at the first stanza, he had a Chinese menu in his hand. The Server is W. Table is O. Number of guests is l (Lower case L). These stand for Werewolf Of London. On this illustration, there is a Guest Check with some Chinese symbols. Those symbols are numbers.
Once decoded to Arabic numbers, you get: 45 49 11 38 12 19 19 42 This is simply a code to count the letters in the lyrics. This will give you the two words, GOOD LUCK
Lyrics: I saw a werewolf with a Chinese menu in his hand Walking through the streets of SoHo in the rain He was looking for the place called Lee Ho Fooks For to get a big dish of beef chow mein

Clever.
Congrats to the winner.
Where are the small words hidden? Even knowing that they're somewhere I can't find them.

HOUSE COLOR is in the front wheel of the bus, lower left. TOWER COLOR is hidden in the trees upper right. It was a sneaky thing for me to do, but they were hidden messages after all. I've seen this technique used before in other hunts. You have enlarge the image on your screen and slowly look around for anything hidden there.
FHH and I are doing these puzzles for fun, but you never know when one of these methods will turn up in a larger hunt.
I will release another puzzle some time today.

The trick to see these hidden stuff is to enlarge the image by at least 300%. If you're trying to find them yourself then don't click below! i.imgur.com/1VtqBo0.jpeg

This is Puzzle #7. Your instructions are to name WHO and WHAT and send those to me, ArtofHiddenMessages. A winner will have BOTH answers correct, not just one answer. I will not let you know if you have one answer correct. The first person to send in both correct answers will be the winner and receive a small wolf charm. These prizes are not worth much, and are mainly for bragging rights and FUN! I may not answer your messages right away, as I am not available 24/7. But your messages are timestamped, so I can see who was first to send in the correct answer! Good luck! And don't forget, Samantha still has an unsolved mini hunt!
