Got this image recently, composed out of some strange “alien looking” symbols. If I had no experience with optical illusions, I would consider this nothing more than plain gibberish. But since illusions are something I consider “my expertise“, immediately have I remembered my “Eye Examination Test” – which can be found inside optical illusion Tests. Tests category is section we mention rarely, really. Still, some of my favorite posts from early days can be found inside. Anywayz, back to the topic; if you have no clue how this image is even considered optical illusion, I recommend visiting some of the previous posts I mentioned in this text. Ok, did my duty, gave you newest illusion, and now I’m off to prepare for my Birthday – it’s tomorrow, and since its already 22h, this means 2 more hours and I’ll be 24! For old time followers, this I bet is something you didn’t know. Now if you are regular visitor, you may already know which country I live in, my age and my educational status :)

    For those who can’t read what it says, “Chinese Food Festival” is what I read it as lol.

    The smaller version that appears on Facebook is legible right away. I could read “Chinese Food Festival” without any difficulty. I was wondering what was so “illusionific” about so I came here. Now that I “see the bigger picture”, I can understand it better.

    Happy Birthday! If you stand back you can see it says.

    Easier to resolve from a distance. As you back away, after a certain distance the brain instantly flips foreground/background.
