Boy, do we (me and my gf) have luck! We have found two options to rent a flat in the exact same building we need to move out from. Today we are going to check the second apartment, and if we like it we will easily move our stuff out of the current, and [...]

Remember Josh Sommers? We had a coverage of his work back in May. Well, this time Josh photographed some real-life objects, using his special techniques which resulted some very interesting photographs. Inside this article you may find dozen of photographs that give you impression you are seeing scaled, miniature models. Well, all the vehicles, buildings [...]

As my auto-post explained earlier this week, I was away with my woman on a visit to her parents. We took a 4 day vacation on island of Korcula, where we both originate from. While on a fishing trip one evening, I managed to catch this giant squid (formally called Architeuthis). Can you believe [...]

I can’t believe we still haven’t discussed one of the most common optical illusions that we see almost each day. I’m talking about Moon Optical Illusion.

Here is something you don’t see every day. In my view this illusion is totally mind-boggling.

Still, I can’t deal with [...]

Previously illusions like this were posted in each separate post, but now as we all got used to them, probably better [...]

So, I’ve just become active on Digg. All of you who use the service as well, I’d appreciate if you added me as friend. I’ll make you mutual friend as soon as you add me. In the mean time, here is the current illusion – Few weeks ago, we had 8 Optical Illusions that mess [...]

So, finally I have collected enough new Moon optical illusions to justify posting them as a collection. Individually posting each one, wouldn’t make sense any more. Agree? Even though the idea isn’t something we haven’t already seen before (through relative sizes category), still each photo uses the Moon as an illusion in a slightly different [...]

Before I explain today’s optical illusion, I’d like to remind you of our previous similar illusions. This is because I find today’s example better than all the rest of the same type. First time we covered “Relative Sizes” illusion of this sort (Perspective Illusion), was all the way back in April 2006. The illusion was [...]

Whooah! Look at this collection of funny money I have just received! Open the post to see dozen of funny money bills, and the illusion they hold. We’ve seen this kind of perspective “Relative Sized” illusions, but this time the author took them to another level. He combined some popular celebrities with relative sizes effect. [...]
