Stare at this animation for 40 seconds, and concentrate on the black spot. After some time, the image will switch automatically (since it’s 2 frame animation), and show you black and white photo of a Pyramid in Egypt. Because of the special effect, originally invented by John Shadowsky, you will see a full color photo of the Pyramid instead black and white one that shows up. Don’t believe me? See for your self! These kind of illusions became really popular in last few months. You can even find few of them in this site’s Archives. Check Rainbow Illusion, and Black and White Spanish Castle Illusion. Here’s what Felice Lungo, creator of this submission wrote in his email: “I made a “Black&White in Color Image” and I would be really glad if you can add it on your website! I don’t know if it’s possible!, but I hope! Hope you like it!”

dudes come on, the illusion is the fact that the colors of the negative screen overrule the black and white, a trick of the mind nothing more, but absolutly not fake! Just proof of our inability to record enviroments as single bound reality’s.
This is so AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. All it dose is switch around the colors and there you have it.
>:( >:( WHY DOESNT ANYONE UNDERSTAND?!
READ THE OPTIONS AT THE TOP AND STARE AT THE DOT THEN YOU WILL SEE WHAT HAPPENS!
lol I too find it funny, I mean I didn’t read the instructions.. but, com’on isn’t it obvious? You’re on an optical illusion site, if there’s a dot you stare at it. =P
Also the dot simply gives you a focal point that is also centered well to see everything in color then.. But you can do it by staring at any one point.. I also did it once with my finger in front and then kept staring at the same spot and removed my finger, thus leaving the area my finger covered now black and white, while the rest I could still see in color.. I had my finger nail over the black dot itself, and stared at my fingernail, and then continued at that spot when I removed my finger after the image changed over q=
the illusion isnt that it jumps
the illusion happens because the picture is actually in black and white but when u stare at the black dot, the pic seems to be in color DAH
This one is one of my favourites! Thanks :)
You’re an idiot if you say it’s fake or doesn’t work. When you stare at a color for a certain amount of time, and then it changes to nuetrals (gray), the complementary color will be visible; hence, the sky changes from orange to “blue” and the pyramid from light blue to a “light yellow-orange”. It’s all optics and perception, rods and cones, and if you say “it’ll change automatically” you simply don’t get it and are probably a lazy, know-it-all, retard monkey.
wow, it really works. stare at the black dot when it changes.
that is so cool
awesome lol
its cheeting
Same thing happens whether you stare at the black dot or not. Come on! GOOD BYE.
