Natural Lighter Illusion

(4 votes)

What we have hear is another optical illusion from Asia. To be more exact, this fellow lighting a cigarette is from Korea. It’s so simple, yet so beautiful (the illusion, I mean). Still, my advice to him would be: “Stop smoking, it’s bad for you!” But who am I to say that, when I have [...]

Girl Holding a Sun

Jordon Smith decided to play with photoshop or some other photo editing software, and created alternative version of Girl Holding a Moon. Jordon: “The girl looks like she is actually holding the sun and then the moon effect was then photoshopped in after taken. I played with the contrast and brightness and got this shot.”

Nature’s Optical Illusions

(7 votes)

Here’s a collection of nature’s illusions I’ve had for a while on my hard disk, but never published them for some reason. Today I decided to take deep breath, and browse through my illusions folder to find some of them that were amazingly created by mother nature. It’s similar to funny billboards collection I posted [...]

Back Street Boys

Hehe, I got much laugh with this photo, and it instantly reminded me of once-popular girlie band (in the title). Observing this photo won’t give you a hint where the illusion hides, but after jumping inside to second and third photo, you become surprised. Notice the resemblance with Ladder Illusion? I thought so! Now [...]

Casper The Friendly Ghost

First thing I’d like to mention about this illusion, is DON’T try this at home folks, the guy on the picture is trained professional, and this is really dangerous thing to do! It’s not so easy as doing the Fart Joke, which also isn’t much safe. Now on with Jim Wiley’s description: “I blow fire [...]

The Medici Chapel Illusion

(0 votes)

Taylor Russi happened to hear of this illusion in his history class (of all places) and thought he’d send it along. Taylor: “If you look at this first picture of the Medici Chapel, it doesn’t appear to be very large, only five, maybe six stories. Yet, from another view, it towers over Florence. [...]

Year 2007 Optical Illusion

(2 votes)

I still don’t get these new kind of illusions, how do they do that? I’m not much of a photographer, but I heard it has something to do with “slow exposure“. If you are visiting us for over a month, then you probably already saw Laser Cup illusion, that was the first of this kind [...]

Brushing The Moon Eclipse

(4 votes)

Jason Rehmus emailed me this amazing photo of a man “painting” the Moon during a lunar eclipse. The photo was originally taken by Laurent Laveder, and is part of the Top 10 Astronomy Images of the year 2006. Probably we’ll be seeing many “Best Of 2006″ stuff, as the year passed us by. Hope you [...]

Sweet Faces Of Fire

(5 votes)

Alex Berkowitz sent me another fire illusion. In a way it’s something similar to WTC illusion, but you decide. In my opinion, we can find whatever we search for in these photos, but Alex has an interesting interpretation: “This is a photo that was taken by the Department of Fire and Rescue Services. I cut [...]

Flying Boys and Cats

(1 votes)

Caitlin Parks sent me these two photos she made. They are really fun as you may see. When I think about it, it so simple to make your very own optical illusion. Everything you need is just a little bit of imagination and there you have it! I just hope that cat doesn’t fall on [...]
