Richard Borwick discovered another phenomenal optical illusion this morning. Sure, we’ve seen the effect in action couple of times before, but then again – how often do you come across incredibly original optical illusions? Not often I guess… Still, what I’ve found so great about his discovery is how innocent it looks at first glance. Almost as if there was no evidence of the hidden illusion it holds… But wait! What if you blurred your vision just for a second? Go cross-eyed, blur your stare or simply step few feet back from your monitor. Now what you see? It has to be magic, right? Just when you’re done, be sure to share his identity…

    Looks like a young Roy Orbison to me. Though that Barney Stinson (whoever he is) image is similar.

    If you are on a laptop you can just tilt the screen back to see it.

    If you turn your monitor you can see it a bit better. All I can tell is that it is someone in a suit.

    Who is he? Oh well, the artist did this by darkening some of the white lines to create the picture. Eh… now I’m trying to do something like this. XD

  8. Fink says:

    I can’t see him, leaning the screen back seems to work a little… not much more than when its in icon view…

    I thought it was Doogie Howser
    But like I said I can’t really see it.

  9. Fink says:

    Yeah forget about… its like those blots that were famous a decade ago… took me all day no really all day… about half the day was spent looking at it with my sister, and sometimes mom pointing out different things in the picture… so I could mentally draw it… final about five minutes before supper I seen it… the first and last time, it hangs now where I walk by (facing, than taking a corner) at least five times a day, I still don’t see it… I try every once and a while…

    This type is just not my game.

    If you reduce the size of image u can easily see him clearly without crossing your eyes.

  12. 2NE1 says:

    YOU SEE HIM BETTER WHEN YOU CROSS YOUR EYES AND HALFWAY CLOSE THEM

    I can’t cross my eyes so I pulled the corners of my eyes laterally and then saw it! Does look like NPH!
