14. The most obvious is the face of an old man. Less obvious are a man and woman kissing. The old man's right eye is the hidden man's face. His right cheek is the man's jacket. The old man's lips are the hidden man's arm. The left eye, nose and beard are the hidden woman. Most people have found this one a little difficult to see.
