Rotating Spiral Illusion

(2 votes)

This is double illusion as well! First thing you’ll notice is that this “spiral” is moving in some strange way. It appears it is somehow rotating, even though it is actually standing very still. Your eye movement across the image makes the illusion of movement. Like Borat would say, “Niicee!”. The second illusion is that [...]

Unreal Movement Triangles

This “simple”, yet effective optical illusion was user-created and submitted to me yesterday by our fan, David Cherry. Open it full size, and you’ll get similar effect you already saw in Primrose Field, Moving Letters, Spinning Watermelons, Rotating Beans, Rotating Cogs, Tops, Woodstock, Expanding Cushion… Animations. But also, there is another effect I noticed. The [...]

Here’s a minor illusion, but very nice effect! Scroll this image up and down, and you will get really strange result! It looks like the doors are “live”. Also here’s my comment on one of the previous illusions…

I posted this one for new visitors, but it’s a new variant that might be interesting to others, too! Be sure to check Animations Category for [...]

This one’s neat! Here’s what I want you to do: simply stare at the black cross in the center of this picture for 30 seconds or more. Then quickly look at some white surface like pice of paper, your wall or something else. Try blinking while starring and you’ll get even stronger effect! What did [...]

Moving Ship Illusion

I’ve red all your coments from previous post, and see most people ask why am I talking in plural when adressing person behind this site (me). Well, I like to think of myself as very important, so I use “majestical we” when adressing myself ;) Just kiddin’. Forward with today’s illusion: Is this ship really [...]

Today I present you Peter Baker’s work. Open the image full size to see the effect better. This is description Peter provided: “Hi there! Here’s an illusion I created a year or two back, playing with equiluminance to generate a false sense of motion, and foreground background reversal. (And maximising attention by diagonalising the grid.) [...]
