Here’s an original idea what you can do, while on a vacation. This art was probably invented by the original author, Michael Hughes. You can find whole lot more of these on his website, where you can buy similar cool stuff. Check it. The guy we see in these pictures is probably Michael, and he [...]

Are these guys under some magic spell? Probably they are, but if they weren’t this effect could also be achieved without movie magic, or complex special effects David Copperfield used! It is called Ames Room, and I posted some photos of it already in the past. Here’s how the story of Ames goes – In [...]

Hehe, just stumbled upon this funny picture. I’m sure that all of you who attended elementary school understand this, since the illusion occurred because of simple physics. The water acts as a magnifying glass, it reflects, and also breaks light beams. If you didn’t knew this by now, you can learn it through our user [...]

Just to inform you, I updated another category with recent optical illusions. This time it was our famous Billboards section. As I asked you in my previous post, if you have few spare minutes, check the category I mentioned, and see if all the new links function properly (no broken links, false forwards etc..). Don’t [...]

What you see below is another example of the Ebbinghaus illusion, also known as “same size” phenomenon. Although, in perspective the sphere in the right far end seems larger, in reality both spheres are exactly the same size. We saw exactly the same effect before with our funny nuns. Another example was little more scary [...]

Edoardo Accenti and his wife took a trip to Paris. During that trip they made pretty cool relative size illusion using a role model from Edoardo father’s photo, taken 40 years before at the same spot! Looks wonderful how these two photos make the time appear still. Below you can see a vintage illusion from [...]

Andreas Hauer Piekarz from Paraná, Brazil took this magnificent photo of him holding a Nature’s Cup. It’s widely known that Brazil won countless World Cups in football (soccer), so I believe that this illusions is more than appropriate. The only thing I don’t understand, why this sport isn’t popular in North America as well, USA [...]
