Bit of a metaphor really. We can tend to focus on single, small details sometimes, and not see the larger situation.

OK, so I was a bit subtle with that...I was pretending I didn't see what you or he saw.

You had to be in my brain at the time, I suppose.

On the flip-side, here's a (paraphrased) metaphor that was used at a motivational meeting at my work recently:

If you wear glasses, take them off and look at them -- you'll see the imperfections and spots on the lenses, but when you are wearing them you see right through them.

In other words, we can be so close to our work seeing everything in mono-focus that we often overlook the fine-detailed imperfections.

I see the fine detail in your avatar... does that count?

Yes, I can see the fine-ness myself. It has particularly nice . . . bell-curves.

I can't think of anywhere on a woman I want to see that kind of curve.

Yeah that'd be a bit weird. Or an indication of plastic surgery gone horribly wrong...

Ankles together - knees to shoulders produces a curve akin to that.

That looks like a side ways sine curve... It's photo shopped tho, to stick out your arse so much as to make a nice curve, your tummy would also protrude just a little... no matter how much you try to suck it in...
