The human eye is a remarkable piece of biological engineering that has been confidently misreading situations since the dawn of time. It fills in gaps and makes extremely bold decisions about what it is looking at before your brain has had a chance to weigh in. Usually this works fine. Then someone takes a photo at a very specific angle, or a shadow falls in exactly the wrong place, and the whole system falls apart completely.
These pictures are that. Not optical illusions in the clinical, textbook sense. Just regular photos taken at the precise moment where reality decided to stop cooperating. You will squint. You will tilt your phone. You will show at least three of them to someone nearby without saying a word and watch their face do the exact same thing yours just did. Scroll carefully.

Those Are Just Baby Turtles Not A Crocodile
I used to live near a park that had a log that turtles would sun themselves on (similar to the ones in this image) and I would walk through that park to my mom's former neighbourhood and see the turtles. I also do not live in an area where there are crocodiles (certainly not in a public park), so I would not assume this was a crocodile.

OP says: "The Guangzhou Yuan Building, also known as the Copper Coin Building because of its shape and color, stands near the Pear River in Guangzhou city, South China’s Guangdong province, Aug 13, 2015. The 33-story building is 138 meters high and has a total area of 105,000 square meters. The structure, 146.6 meters in diameter, is said to be the world’s largest round piece of architecture. It’s inspired by the Gong, a traditional musical percussion instrument, and ancient jade discovered in Guangzhou."
