Face or Person

face or person optical illusion

The face is usually the first thing that you see, then if you look a little longer, you see what appears to be a bundled up woman doing some window shopping. Or is it an eskimo painting their igloo? Did you know that even in randomly arranged dots, people can quickly pick out what would appear to be a human face? It’s because our brains fill in the gaps! With an ambiguous optical illusion like this, you’ll find it’s virtually impossible to interpret the image as both items at the same time. Your mind will either see the person’s face or it’ll see the person int he coat. Then you’ll see that it will flip back and forth as you focus on one element or the other. If you like this you’ll also like the bird or boat, or even just a simple cube.
