Hannibal Lecter Made of Pigeons Illusion
April 22, 2007 by Vurdlak
Funny thing, yesterday I received two illusions where the main role is played by pigeons. So let's call today's post Double Illusion. First illusion below is a picture of Hannibal Lecter made up of pigeons. If you somehow missed it, Hannibal Lecter is the cannibal played by Anthony Hopkins in "Silence of The Lambs" (and later in "Hannibal" and "Red Dragon"). It is really cool composition submitted by Joise Peterson. It look very familiar, right? No wonder, we posted very similar illusion month ago, called "Motorbike Faces". Check it.
The second submission was submitted by Johan Deknudt and shows the attack of giant pigeons. Hope they don't go crazy like those crazy birds in Hitchcock's movie, and slay everyone. Johan wrote: "I recently become a regular visitor on Mighty Optical Illusions. Through a feed subscription, and started looking in family pictures if I could spot accidental illusions. I haven't found any (yet). I'll mail another picture next week. I stumbled upon this while browsing through my rss news feeds. The Irony of this article is that there is a plague of pigeons in Liverpool. The photographer took the picture like so the pigeons appear bigger then they are to focus the attention on the pigeons :P if you catch my drift". It's relative sizes illusion, if you didn't get it by now :)

Ha, funneh. Pigeons.
The first one was truly amazing!!!! Wow, how did someon take a pic of that?! And the second one was funny :). Imagine that!!!! my friends cat would be happy! =^.^=
I LOVE HANNIBAL
cool illusion too
not the best i've seen on here...
the first looks photoshopped, and the second is hardley an illusion...
The first "illusion" is from the movie Hannibal ... yeah ... its a movie illusion
The first is cool, though I don't believe that's possible unless it was a sign from god. And the second isn't an illusion, the camera's just close to the pidgeons. I miss real illusions, you know, where you stare at something for a while and then a when you look at a wall you see a picture, or the wall seems to be moving.
1st image isnt too bad, could be more realistic though. Second image took me a moment because I (and most people I assume) naturally assume it is just perspective and see it as a normal photo, until I read it and realised the birds look huge, I like it.
hahaha this is kinda funny
Hey guys, look! The first one isn't even real pigeons! It's one of those miniature things!
on the first one you can see a bench and bin, and ifit was pidgeons they would be bigger...
i like the second one though
Pretty cool
I don't get the second one?
I gueese they put food in the shape of the face so that the pigeons would unwitingly form the shape.
The second one isn't suposed to be an illusion. It shows how they did the first one by placeing the food to atract the pigeons into the shape of a face.
