Is This Horse Coming or Going?

Good morning! I spent the weekend repairing a tiny leak in my roof and laying a new (gorgeous!) floor in my living room, so I’m a little tired and a lot sore this morning. I could definitely use a little boost this morning, so let’s get those sleepy weekend brains woken up and raring to go for the new week ahead! Well, okay, so maybe “raring to go” might be pushing it a tad. I don’t think I’ll be doing much raring today, but a little brain exercise certainly couldn’t hurt. This morning’s illusion is great for this! Take a look at this horse illusion and try to decide if he’s coming or going…

So, what do you think? If the horse coming or going? Is he being ridden away from you or toward you.

This can actually be seen either way. Since there are no details and the horse is nothing more than a black shape, it’s almost impossible to tell which way the horse is going!

But, I’m going to take a wild guess here and say that he’s actually riding away from us. The caption at the bottom of the photo states “to the ball park he wends his way”. So, I’m going to assume that he’s heading away from us and toward the ball park. I know—I’m reaching, but I’m going to stick with that theory!

When you’re done trying to figure out whether the horse is comin or going, be sure to head over and check out this horse silhouette illusion!

  1. The front hooves seem larger than the rear hooves which leads me to believe the horse is headed towards the viewer.
