Pisa Tower Illusion

It seems Jean-François Capdet from Saleilles is a fellow European :) He mailed me two photos I’m placing as we speak. It’s Pisa Tower photographed under two different angles. Some of you probably browsed our full archive and found original Pisa Tower Illusion, some of you that didn’t read carefully: We have all heard (or [...]

Split Hill Illusion

Visitor called Jonas shared his recent photo with us. He described the background of how this picture took place, but wants you to solve how the effect happens.

Paula Shuler sent these three photos while ago, but it somehow got lost in my mailbox. I don’t care what you think, but this was really sympatic illusion for me :) Maybe because I love antyhing that has anything to do with sea. I even photographed one illusion, while on my vacation! I posted it [...]

Ok, I recieved this optical illusion recently, and thought to my self: “Funny! It appears that the boy is juggling, while in fact the ball is standing still on the grass in the background”. Wrong!
