Thanks for the link, Brandon.
I had raised this in the image filter discussions on Foundation-l yesterday (as
well as on http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_Diskussion:Kurier ), and it
seems to have triggered some thought, which is all for the good.
Here are searches that deliver similar results in Wikipedia and Commons:
pearl necklace
cucumber
Zahnbürste (German for toothbrush)
toothbrush
electric toothbrushes
jumping ball
underwater
... and likely many, many others.
