Beyonce Afterimage Illusion

I don’t know much about Beyonce’s controversial pregnancy, but what I know for sure is that she makes one hell of an optical illusion! What I want you to do (once again) is to stare at this negative photo of her for a minute or so. Don’t forget to fixate the dots on her nose while you’re doing it. After some time, turn your eyes to a plain surface right next to the image (a ceiling or a blank wall would serve fine as well). A “negative of a negative“, a proper image in full-color if you will, will then appear momentarily. The more you blink, the better afterimage effect you’ll experience! If this version wasn’t enough, you may try the full size version located here.

    1. Ok here is what to do:
      1.stare at the red dot on her nose for 30 secs.
      2.look at a blank, solid surface (paper, wall, ceiling) while blinling really fast
      3.you will sew beyoncw

  1. I care for her much, so I will not be burning her image into my eyes for any amount of time…. I’ll trust you on this illusion.

  2. Great illusion! However, it isn’t Beyonce, but an Indian model turned actress named Deepika Padukone (daughter of the winner of All England Championship (Badminton)).
    Hope I am under no illusion about the identity!

    1. I agree with Toby. I copied the picture into Paint Shop Pro, then did a negative color effect to it. Definetly not Beyonce.

  3. OMG DATS WEIRD
    also when i was staring and the dots i thought i saw the red dot move side to side…. probs just my messed up eyes though

  4. Please, provide the photo of this negative to prove what you say otherwise every experience will be slightly different. i personally think it is beyonce but some do say it is deepika….

  5. Here’s the real photo of Deepika:

  6. Graphic designers everywhere know the secret! RGB (red, green, blue) are the three pixel hues that make up all photos/forms on a monitor

  7. Awesome. I am always fascinated by optical illusions like this. Looks like our eyes process negatives like a film developing center. Can’t say if it isn’t really Beyonce, though, my “developed” image is very fleeting.
