Reading the title, and understanding it came directly from me, I suppose adds some weight to the actual Leopard Illusion you see below. It’s hard for me to explain how this illusion came to be, without revealing the actual solution, thus ruining the surprise-effect for you. There is much relevant info and background for it, but for now I’ll retain myself just on revealing the author behind it – the magnificent Craig Tracy. First thing you’ll notice is that it’s not some photo of an actual animal, rather a realistically painted picture. But you’re still far from seeing the illusion. Only tip I can give you, is that leopard’s eyes were painted on a concrete floor. I suggest you examine the picture more closely before seeing this final hint. I’ll monitor the forthcoming ratings, and am eager to see if you agree with me that this must be one of the best optical illusions ever created!

Listen this is a really great illusion. I am an 11 year old and I didn’t feel uncomfortable at all looking at this once I knew it was a lady’s butt. We all have one, we were born with it, why be ahsamed of it (lol)? Very nice artwork.
OMG Most beautiful illusion ever!
awesome totally awesome !!!!!!
best ive ever seen . great artistic talent and great photography puts this illusion at the top of its class!!!!
this…illusion…is….AWESOME!!!!!!!! oh my god i love it
I dont think its a woman…i think u people want it to be one….
@ EvanderT
I DO think it’s a woman, just look at the curves of the body, you can see it has a very feminine shape..
<3 the illusion!
if it IS a woman’s body, where are the legs?
WHAT?I cant see a pic in the illusion:(
Yeah, it’s a woman probably.. But I didn’t like it..
holy crap… is that a PERSON??!!
This is absolutely beautiful! I am an artist myself and could not see it for several minutes. AMAZING!!!
wth!! Is the back on the bridge of its nose?
Hi!… I don’t think this is a woman that some are seeing. I think its a composition of several animals. If you chop the image in half the top looks like an owl, the bottom as a baboon and together as a leoperd.
I see the body of a female, but does anyone else notice what is strange about the nose? Did anyone notice the butterfly? if you look closely you can see antennae. maybe i’m just seeing things. Amazing work to say the least!
I see the body of a female as well. He said that the eyes were painted on a concrete floor, so she is just on her knees on top of it (to the person asking where her legs are.)
Not to mention this picture is part of a set called body painting.
I totally see the person, and yes, i see the butterfly too
Spoiler Alert!!!
to anyone who is absolutely puzzled… it IS a woman. I googled this picture and saw it on a different angle its a woman sitting on an elevated chair(kinda like a swing seat, she’s holding onto the chains) infront of a poster on which the leopard was painted her bum beautifully hides the seat :P. the reason you don’t see her legs is that they are behind the poster which had leg holes…
It’s NOT on a concrete floor- it killed me that I couldn’t see the feet or thigs, so I looked it up. Here it is: http://www.focus.it/fileflash/images/donna.jpg
Yea its cool, but if its so difficult to figure out what the illusion is then its worthless to call it an “Optical Illusion”.. Just my two pennies..
the nose is a butterfly…
Best illusion ever or nice example of camouflage?
Unimpressed.
i saw it this way too i just didnt beleive it cause they said it was draawn in concrete http://www.focus.it/fileflash/images/donna.jpg
don’t believe it’s a woman? do like me type in craig tracy on google images and it’l show you how he did it :D
