Optical Illusion Pictures #3

Table Optical Illusion
shamrock illusion

This has quickly become another one of my favorite optical illusions. Check out the two tables above. The one on the right is much more of a square, and the one on the left is much longer and skinnier, right? Wrong! The surface area of each table is actually identical! To prove it, put a peice of typing paper up the screen and VERY LIGHTLY trace over one of outlines of the table top.

You'll see that the outline matches perfectly!

Squiggly Lines Illusion

hat eye trick

At first when I saw this illusion, I was thinking... what the heck is this? That's a pretty funky illusion, and I'm not sure what it's supposed to be. Well, at first, you'll notcice that the vertical lines are pretty messed up. But then as you look at it longer, the thicker black lines will start to look like walls in a room, and the white square will appear to be very far away. Before this optical illusion gives you a headache, better click on, my friend!

flipping stairs

Upside Down Stairs - Exclusively created for you, my loyal visitors.

These stairs at first appear as if they're going one way, then if you stare awhile, they flip. We posted these over in the optical illusions blog.

Spinning spiral spheres video! Just created and pretty fun!

moving red spiral

Moving Red Spiral
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! Although this small image might move a bit as you read these words, the larger versions are even better!

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.

 

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.

Perfect and printable!
