This is one of the better optical illusions I saw lately. Image below is in fact animated .gif file, which loops forever. What you have to do, is look at the blue and yellow negative, and then after 30 seconds or so, the photo of a mountain will appear . Even though the mountain you see is gray-scaled (black and white), your eyes are tricked and image looks like it’s in full-color (until you move your eyes though…) This fascinating work was created and submitted to us by John Sadowski and you should check John’s website to find even more innovative posts like this one!

dammit, dont u know how to use ur BRAINS?
I didnt read the instructions and i understand the illusion!
i agree with lizzy, idiots…
KOOL!!
thats soooooo
cool
=^.^=
thats goood
This is fake, I was pretty sure it was from the start but I printed the screen anyway and copy it to paintshop and I’m still waiting for it to turn colors.
did the same thing and nothing happened. i also noticed that it changes color fom time to time even though you won’t stare at it for 30 s. one word to put it: FAKE
I can see a face in the mountain. It is in the left under the loop. After it turns black and white you can see it.
One way for all of those non-believers out there to see that it is ONLY 1 inverted color and 1 B/W image is to move your eyes around is circles, squares, triangles (whatever, as long as it’s random) while the inverted pic is on, and you’ll see that the image becomes a B/W, and is never in color, proving that it is an optical illusion, not just a loop of an invert, a color, and a B/W.
all i have to say is that this is awesome and chelsea and all you others who say its a fake are losers who apparently dont understand the concept that just because something is interesting means its fake. you are blights on society and i voice the public opinion that if you cannot comprehend something as basic as this that you refrain from spreading your idiocy to the rest of us
fake only .gif!
simple test: you look at the dot and do as it tells you, get someone else to look only when it turns to b/w. you will see color, the other person will see b/w
Some people are so stupid. This illusion is freakin awesome. Nothing fake about it.
F-A-K-E PEOPLES!!!
I agree. I mean I scrolled down the page, then when I scrolled up, it was black and white. Its asom, and all. But Is it real?
Some of the people who leave comments here are incredibly stupid. And when I say stupid, I mean, how the heck did they manage to turn on their computers?
How do you do it?
mangoman how stupid can you get? it’s faked. it changes colour every so often. its a different pictues. stop boring us with your chemical crap
the best illusion ever!!!!
This is stupid! it changed while i was readin the instructions!! this is so fake! i could do better!
At first I was like: ‘Whutafuzzzchabunuuuh?!? You put the colour photo in? Until I read the description and was ‘Omguuuuuhtyabuzunz….Fuchaaa!
Love it!!!
completely fake.
wow.
the people that actually believe that this works.. RETARDS.
i was reading the directions and all of a sudden the image changes.
i wasnt even staring at it like the directions say.
dont be so gullible people.
:}
u guys r idiots the picture actually changes itz not an illusion!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
what a great fake :D
people who think this is fake are either one of two things, not critically observant or just plain stupid. One way you can prove it’s not fake is look at the picture and see how long you can make the illusion of color last. Time it. Next time around look away quickly and look back. The second time will not last as long as the first gauranteed and you want to know why? because it’s not fake! So just enjoy the stinking illusion.
i just realized why people think it’s fake, they’re like yeah the picture changed. i wasn’t even looking at it and it changed. WOW! no duh! yeah it changes to a freaking black and white image but if you stare at the dot it looks like a color photo when it changes from the abstract colors. plus if i’m staring at this little box i’m typing in and it changes “out of the corner of my eye” it will still create the illusion “out of the corner of my eye.” people are incredibly stupid sometimes.
k and um by the way ALL OF THE PEOPLE WHO ALREADY KNEW THAT THIS WAS NOT A FAKE…. U ROOOOCK!!!!
but i rock more…
haha lols jk…
but not really
=^^=
;P
some people are so dum, jus for the record, this IS real. i print screened it just as it turned black and white. as i was doing it, it still went colourful BUT when i checked it, IT WAS BLACK AND WHITE. so there! its real
it’S not fAKE guys..!!!
we know that there are two pix ryt? the one are the negatives and the other the black and white..!!l00k at the black dot during the negative-colored pix are shown
and when the other picture(w/c is black n white)appears,you can see that the sky turns to blue and my technique is to look rapidly at the grasses and the sky and you can see that it really changes into a colored picture.not black and white nor neagtive…just plain ccolored pictures…
try it again..and you can really tell that it’s true..!!
..nice illusion!!!AWES0ME..!!
..L0VEiit..!!!!ü
ice tried it before and didnt get it but i just did. [a few days after trying it the first time]
I love these ones!!
i love how some people think it’s all fake. i’ve done it myself at home. it has an easy explanation. mangoman explains it. i love these things they totally rock!
that’s so cool! definately one of the better afterimage ones. when it first changed, i thought it was merely a regular color photograph that was there to trick me, like the “scariest illusion ever” actually has no illusion in it, it’s just scary. then i moved my eyes… that’s crazy!
I tried printing it 2 see if it was real! guess wat?! it isn’t! ha!
I JUST CANT UNDERSTAND WHY SOME PEOPLE CANT UNDERSTAND THIS!!!! OF COURSE THAT IF U PRINT IT, IT WONT WORK, ITS A .GIF IMAGE, IT CHANGES !!! THERE ARE 2 PICTURES, ONE WITH SOME INVERTED COLORS AND OTHER IN BLACK AND WHITE, IF U SEE THE INVERTED BEFORE THE BLACK AND WHITE, THE BLACK AND WHITE WILL BE IN COLORS!!!! CANT U GET IT?? U FUCKING STUPID BITCHES! YOU GUYS CANT BE SO STUPID, I CANT UNDERSTAND HOW DUMMIES U GUYS ARE!!! THINK A LITTLE, 2 IMAGES, SEE ONE FIRST AND THE OTHER WILL BE IN COLORS!!!! UNDERSTAND ???? OR NOT YET???? GO TO HELL U FUCKING STUPID GUYS, GO TO SCHOOL, LEARN SOMETHING, LEARN HOW TO READ. THE DESCRIPTION EXPLAIN WHAT WE ARE SAYING, BUT U GUYS JUST CANT UNDERSTAND, ITS IMPOSSIBLE THAT U HAVE MORE THAN 10 YEARS OLD!
This is bull. It’s an animation that goes to the greyscaled mountain every 30 seconds or so…there’s no illusion…
Its a waste of badnwitdth is what it is. Just remove it.
at the end is quotes from the instructions basically saying “no duh” to the people saying that it is a gif, or there are two pictures.
how is it fake or photoshopped? that’s the question i’d like to have answered from the people insisting it is.
and…
*i saw those same faces someone else mentioned
*i do get how to do this *not fake* picture thing, but i think the blue mountains is a weak blue, because when the picture goes to grey-scale, i see the blue sky, but i still see mostly grey mountains. but i know i’m doing it right, because i did get a blue sky. i at least understand the concept here.
” Image below is infact animated gif, which loops forever. What you have to do, is look at the blue and yellow negative, and then after 30 seconds or so, the photo of a mountain will appear .

OMFG try reading it again!!! dumbass!!! do u really think that most of us are so stupid that think that a weird picture becomes black and white one?!? hahahaha then read the description again!!!
if we are retards, then u r twice ‘tard!! =P
Okay fools that think they are so smart bcuz they realized the picture changed…… it was meant to changed take the description for example."What you have to do, is look at the blue and yellow negative, and then after 30 seconds or so, the photo of a mountain will appear . Eventhough the mountain you see is greyscaled (black & white), your eyes are tricked and image looks like it's in full-color (until you move your eyes though…)"
OKAY DO YOU GET IT…..THE PICTURE WAS MEANT TO CHANGE SO THAT U CAN SEE THE IMAGE IN FULL COLOUR…
THIS MESSAGE WAS MEANT FOR… YERMURAT, NO.86 AND NO. 73…. FOOLS
Maybe I'm broken or something but I didn't see it.. the only thing was the sky looked blue for a second when it changed to black & white.
Whoa, it’s kind of alarming just how many people missed the entire point of the illusion because they failed reading comprehension.
I think the problem we have here is that loads of people nowadays just do not have the attention span to look in one place for 30 seconds and so they never see the colour illusion. And if they do they assume it must have been the computer somehow knowing to change the image to black and white at the precise moment they defocus.
Awesome optical illusion!
cool stuff but some people are IDIOTS

and listen to giovannimainardi coz he said:

and he’s right!
OOOOH!!!! ok, it changes to a mountain by itself, but if you do it right, the you can see the black and white mountain in colour. So it is cool, just the directions aren’t very clear.
Ok so the thing that started this whole virtual fight is the directions. Their unclear. Soem people beleive that if you look at the negative for 30 seconds then it will flip to a grayscale mountan. However in reality, if you stare at the picture of a negative for 30 seconds, then look at the grayscale mountainscape, it appears that the grayscale is in colour. I think people need to stop fighting over this small misunderstanding.
Finnally i want to ask virus and others about their comments on 12-year-olds. Are you implying that all 12-year-olds are stupid and don’t have the mental capacity to understand optical illusions? If not then maybe i got the message wrong, but that’s how i interpreted it. Can you please explain to me if you were or were not implying what i think you were in another coment?
P.S. 12 year olds can also enjoy optical illusions.
That’s one of my fave illusions. my mother freaked when she saw this one. I love the colors!!!! IGUANA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i wasn’t even watching d pic n it changed! nt real; i dont think so
Its the best optical illusion I’ve seen so far. People should read first before they comment(sigh… why do I even bother. Its obvious that they don’t get the point and won’t bother trying to get it.)
that is so crazy!
