For the last few days I felt somewhat “depressed” concerning the optical illusion material we share. It somehow seemed that all of the illusions just kept repeating themselves lately, being nothing more than a variation of a variation of a variation. As if very rarely something truly original bumps up. Have we really exhausted the [...]

I usually ignore the cloud/water illusions which supposedly resemble angels, faces, aliens….etc. It’s simply because they are too big of a stretch, at most of the times. Here and then something passes my filter, and in those rare cases it’s questionable if there was photoshopping involved. However, Ricardo Carvalho’s submission intrigued me. Perhaps the story [...]

Gizmodo published a story recently, concerning what appears to be a real-life version of an old school Rabbit-Duck optical illusion. The original was a memorable example, where if you looked at it one way it was a rabbit, but in the same time it could also resemble a duck. I hope this one’s just a [...]

I had these photos in my queue for some time now, yet never felt they deserve their own separate post each. What about if I put them all up as a collection? Do you believe all four of them combined can slip through, eventually? Anyway, if you don’t see them as true illusions, they still [...]

And as you might have guessed, it battles to provide better health care to people of Africa. But what’s even more interesting for us, optical illusion-orientated audience, is AMREF’s [...]

Here’s a relatively new optical illusion, examples of which were featured on multiple occasions. I think today’s version beats them all! In short, it makes your brain/eyes play a trick on you, making you “feel” that the photo on the right is slightly slanted. In reality it’s not. How can it be that the both [...]

Dunno if you saw this, but what I do know is that we get letters all the time, urging us to devote more space to Salvador Dali’s life and work. Here you have it: a cover of a Match magazine, dating all the way back to October 12th, 1939, which was created by Salvador Dali [...]

So, Wedde-Lynn Doe sent us this funny comic the other day. Her timing was perfect, because just today I’ve stumbled upon an exactly the same real life illusion! Both of them can be seen inside this article. I think that guy is going to be disappointed when he sees what’s casting that shadow in the [...]
