Shimmering Optical Illusion Picture
moving optical illusion spiral

Here's what to do for this optical illusion picture above:
Look into the center of this spiral for awhile. After a little while, you'll start to see white lines radiating out from the center. Stare into the middle for longer, and blink a few times! You might see some more tricky white flashes, and what they call "scintilation" in the optical illusion world. Pretty cool!

Angels and Bats?
angels and bats

Psychologists used to use images like this to determine if someone was crazy or not. If they saw the bats, they might say that the individual was possessed by the devil! And if they saw the angels, they could also accuse the person of being insane, because they'd say that by not seeing the bats first, you are ignoring the obvious signs of the devil. Eventually the subject would get confused (much like you may be right now) and they'd have the perfect excuse to lock them up in an insane asylum. Sheesh!

Moving Backgrounds

It moves! You must zoom in to get the full illusion. You'll see the rings rotate, even though they are not moving at all.

We've created several sizes so you can use as your desktop background.

moving red spiral

Moving Red Spiral - 7/27/2011
Sometimes, while I'm just playing around in Photoshop, something appears, as if by magic. This illusion was one of those that just jumps off the page.

It's a large red spiral on a purple background that appears to jump and move. Works better for some people than others, but if you like the moving illusions, you'll love it!

Diamonds appear to be the same shade. But they're not!

Same Shade Diamonds

Wow! It will look like the diamonds on the top are much darker than the diamonds on the bottom.

You won't believe how amazing this incredible optical illusion is.
