Expanding Square

(6 votes)

Is this square really expanding? This illusion surely gives you impression it does. Starring at it for one minute, really gave me hallucination effect. This continuous motion is oldest trick in the book. Just look at our previous animations! There you can find even better ones, like Christopher Walken in space, or Scary Spider Illusion. [...]

Snow White Optical Illusion

(5 votes)

I think this illusion won’t work with Mozzila Firefox… So open some other web browser, and open this picture full size. Then press CTRL + A, or simply highlight the picture with your mouse. You should see a surprise! There is a hidden image beneath the visible surface, and if you do like I wrote, [...]

White Tiger Brothers

(3 votes)

This beautiful picture shows beautiful white tiger family. You probably see only 4 of them like I did the first time I saw this pic. Look again! There should be much more of their brothers and sister hidden beneath the obvious surface. How many did you find? If you found them all, but would like [...]

Flat Building no.2

(7 votes)

This version of 2D building is done by Nima Motamedi. Inside this post you can see some more amazing photos taken, and kindly submitted by Nima. This particular building looks like it lacks 3rd dimension. Do you agree? I can’t understand how people manage to live in these :) Still, it would be cool to [...]

Laser Lady Illusion

(2 votes)

Obviously inspired by our previous post, David Kossin submitted his cool photos. He wrote: “Enclosed is my illusion of a laser-generated human, similar to “The Laser Cup” Illusion. Also is my version of a coffee mug. Enjoy! P.S. Love the site and the new Dashboard Widget, Gratz!” For the explanation how to do similar illusion [...]

New “Rabbit Or a Duck” Illusion

Back To The Future

(5 votes)

It’s simple! Just takes few seconds to notice what’s the illusion in this photo. When you do, you’ll have a laugh like I did. The picture is photo-shopped, but still awesome. Hint: it has something to do with this. I got this submission in my email from anonymous submitter. Thanks Anonymous! After this illusion you [...]

Pisa Tower Illusion

(2 votes)

It seems Jean-François Capdet from Saleilles is a fellow European :) He mailed me two photos I’m placing as we speak. It’s Pisa Tower photographed under two different angles. Some of you probably browsed our full archive and found original Pisa Tower Illusion, some of you that didn’t read carefully: We have all heard (or [...]

Paris Mural

(7 votes)

“London-based Frenchman” Xavier Kreiss sent me this after/before photo of a Paris building mural. When you see the first photo, you probably won’t notice anything strange with it. Now when you jumped inside, and saw second photo… Bam! It hits you. Can you believe this whole building was almost-flat wall before artistic painting? Really awesome! [...]
