Visual Challenges for St. Patrick's Day

St. Patrick’s Day is a fun, no-stress holiday that, like all others, comes once a year. Free of the trappings of having to buy gifts, or worry about forgetting something, this “green” holiday is all about revelry, fun and celebration. Well, the real meaning behind it all is as follows (courtesy of Wikipedia):

Saint Patrick's Day, or the Feast of Saint Patrick (IrishLá Fhéile Pádraig, "the Day of the Festival of Patrick"), is a cultural and religious celebration held on 17 March, the traditional death date of Saint Patrick (c. AD 385–461), the foremost patron saint of Ireland.

Saint Patrick's Day was made an official Christian feast day in the early 17th century and is observed by the Catholic Church, the Anglican Communion (especially the Church of Ireland), the Eastern Orthodox Church, and the Lutheran Church. The day commemorates Saint Patrick and the arrival of Christianity in Ireland, and celebrates the heritage and culture of the Irish in general. Celebrations generally involve public parades and festivals, céilís, and the wearing of green attire or shamrocks. Christians who belong to liturgical denominations also attend church services and historically the Lenten restrictions on eating and drinking alcohol were lifted for the day, which has encouraged and propagated the holiday's tradition of alcohol consumption.

Well, now that we’ve got that bit of history behind us and context in place, let’s get down to business here with our three, St. Patrick’s Day-themed visual challenges. Yep, you just need to find the hidden four leaf clover in each of the below images from Unsplash.com. Good luck! You’ll need all your “Where’s Waldo?” skills in full effect ;).

Check out this amazing, natural phenomenon known as “The Giant’s Causeway,” an area of about 40,000 interlocking basalt columns, the result of an ancient volcanic fissure eruption. Near Dublin, Ireland, this incredible place is frequently visited by tourists and locals alike. Well, see if you can find the hidden four leaf clover in the picture below!
