Does it count if I noticed the "answer" in internet puzzle but didn't think it was the answer?

This is so stoopid it's not worth a Spoiler Alert, but if somebody wants one, stop when you get to "Give up?". Anyway, I saw right off what turned out to be the Answer but didn't think it was the Answer, just thought it was part of the picture, so does it count?

[font size=5]This duvet cover has gone viral for the most LOL-worthy reason ever[/font]

NOTE: We promise this isn’t one of those stare-at-the-picture-only-to-get-your-pants-scared-off-by-a-demon-popping-out-at-you snafus that the internet has been playing for years. We’re not mean like that. But once you see the answer to this prank, we can’t guarantee you’ll be any less annoyed — in a funny way though!

Okay, take your time with this one and look closely. Can you see anything strange going on in this picture of a seemingly normal duvet cover?
Need some help? Maybe look around the entirety of the picture. Think outside the box, if you will.

Give up? Okay, brace yourselves for the answer …
…It’s a red hula hoop, not a red circle. It’s just a regular hula hoop leaning on a bed.
