~~!! Don't You Think That I Deserve The Reps !!~~
If you’ve ever felt like you go a little cross-eyed after taking a peek at an optical illusion, then you know they can be a pretty intense phenomenon. What your eyes perceive when looking at one of these images is actually a visual illusion; you see the image as something different than what it is because the different cells and receptors in your eyes distinguish images and colors at dissimilar speeds. The eye can only receive a limited amount of visual stimuli, but as your brain constantly processes the visual information, it gives you the illusion of continuous sight. Whether it’s an optical, physiological or cognitive illusion, the design plays a trick on your eyes (and mind). Check out some of interesting illusions below—but beware, you may not be able to absorb them all in one sitting.
Flowing Leaves
The brown leaf shapes against a green background make this look as if the entire group is flowing—making waves if you focus on the picture as a whole.
Pulsing Vortex
If you stare at this one long enough you’ll notice a fast and pulsing multicolored vortex.
Waves
The blue almond-shaped objects look as if they’re all passing over three separate columns.
Hypnosis
Although this image is comprised of simple purple and green squares outlined in black, it looks like it is bulging out in the center.
Kaleidoscopes
A collection of black, blue, green and white shapes appears to be five different kaleidoscope-type figures—each swirling toward their centers.
Wormhole
The black and white circular lines make this illusion seem as if there are various depths in the image, creating different entryways and tunnels.
Bull’s-Eye
If you stare at the center of the image, it looks as if the outer rings are rotating in alternating directions—an effect meant to mesmerize the viewer.
Starbursts
These bright purple and green star-like shapes appear to be moving, which can be a little nauseating if you stare at it for too long.
Camouflaged Toads Optical Illusion
National Geographic is proud owner of some of the best photos in the world. Here and then a photo jumps out, containing an interesting effect which sometimes can be seen as optical illusion. Just check out this National Geographic tag, and you’ll be amazed how many illusions on this site are from NG. Anyway, today’s optical illusion was submitted by Urban Ambrozic and Grégory Plantard. We get many of “camouflage” illusions, but most of them don’t make it to the front page of Moillusions. This one however, took my attention. First I only saw one campuflaged toad – thought : “hm, its ok”, but after few moments I was able to spot the second and third one! How many of them are there?! Those three leaf-litter toads were collected within yards of each other, and its amazing how they almost disappear on a forest floor in Panama. For them to stay alive in the tropics (where nearly everything is food for something else), often calls for such trickery to fool a predator’s eye. Below the photo, you may see a gallery of few similar photos (by NG as well). Can you spot an insect hiding in each of them? Those little animals could very well put Liu Bolin and Emma Hack to a shame. Amazing!
If you watch the above images from your seat in front of the computer, Mr.Angry is on the left, and Mrs.Calm is on the right.
Get up from your seat, and move ! back about eight feet!! They switch places!!
