This is one of the rare, old-timer optical illusions. It was taken from a german/french magazine that shows a vintage painting of two funny men. Eventhough they both look like the fatter guy from Laurel and Hardy (don’t remember which one is fat, and which one is thin), artists named them David and Goliath. The thing is that the blond guy (David) looks smaller and weaker then the left one (Goliath). Why is that? You guessed… becase this is another optical illusion… Another thing, if you can read the text and speak german/french please translate this and post it under comments. Thanks!

Edit: Donald Huggan, a professional translator, translated this text from Dutch to English, so be sure to email him if you have simmilar jobs for him. The original translated text follows:

“When you lay the figures next to each other in the same direction it appears that the one in front is bigger. Both are really the same size. Cut out these figures.”

These images look great! Please comment the name of the author if you know who took these. I would surely love to credit him for this nice lil’ work. These heads look as if they muttated into some strange form. Can you guess how this trick was done?

Yeah, it’s an Alphabet, ABC of the english language, still there’s something wrong with it. Not only something, but every single letter is somehow impossible if you view it with attention. What do you think about this illusion? I don’t like it :) It’s junk to be sincere, but either way wanted to share it ;P At least give me applause for beeing honest…

Here’s a set of body art paintings based on the astrological signs of Zodiac. It’s wonderfull how some of them manage to deceive you – you can’t recognise human beeing on quite few of them! The artist behind these is called Rudi Everts. He is Australian Body Paint Artist and you can visit his website here. Which zodiac sign are you? Which one do you like the most? Which of these body paintings you think stands above all others? I’m Gemini, but the coolest one I see here is Scorpio! Yeah! – More…

Do you share my opinnion that the rose is one of the nature’s most amazing creations? I really liked this image the first second I glazed my eyes on it. Not that I knew what wonderfull secret it hides. Can you spot another amazing creature of nature hidden in this picture? Can you find it? How long did it take you to see it? It’s easier than Face in The Coffe Trick, tough.
