Posting photoshopped stuff to this website is a big “No-no!” by my unwritten rules. But every month or so I stumble upon interesting artwork that can’t be ignored so easily. The photo-montaged object you see below was created for an illusion contest at Worth1000’s website by CraftLord, and it’s name is “The Circle sculpture” (How [...]

Impossible structures were mostly popularized by M.C.Escher, and since then many artists try to match his genius. Some manage to get close, while others create their own visions of impossible structures only influenced by Escher. From recently, there are even real life 3D models that look impossible from certain point of view. While they obey [...]

Greg Grease Lehman, “The Grease” is a tattoo master who sometimes plays with optical illusions and their forms. We have already seen Greg’s tattoo face illusion, but this time he sent us something completely different. Impossible objects like this one never get old. They are interesting when they are photoshopped, like the yesterday’s illusion, [...]

Ola! Impossible objects in real life were always one of my favorite structure illusions. I enjoy seeing them around me, which I actually don’t, since nothing interesting concerning optical illusions is happening in my neighborhood. Anyone knows where this strange arch is located? Never-Neverland, Sweden,…?
Anyhow, you probably noticed I’m huuugely uninspired today, so if you [...]

But after a minute or so, you shall probably notice that something isn’t quite all right. Both of these optical illusion are very simple, yet they hide an interesting effect. I posted these since their [...]

This kind of optical illusions I like the most! It makes me really happy when I manage to motivate my visitors with my articles, for them to try and create their own illusions. As you see Janek created these impossible nuts, and there was no digital manipulation on this photo! If you saw our previous [...]

I think many of our long time visitors have already seen this type of illusion on our website. This crate box the women is holding in her hands looks impossible to exist in real life, yet it isn’t. There has been no manipulation with the below photos, and to prove it, I also posted an [...]

Peter Bukowinski thought I might like his submission, and he was right. The motive in this picture has already been seen, but it is never boring to see new versions of classic illusion. If you look closely, you’ll notice something paradoxic in the window below. Not only does it give you something to think, but [...]

Whoaa! I think I would feel uncomfortable as well, if I found myself in similar situation. This Lego guy found himself in a surrounding, his poor little brain isn’t capable to understand. But we are much more experienced with optical illusions, aren’t we? This is piece of cake for a regular Mighty Illusions fan. Who’s [...]
