Be sincere, what whas the first thing you thought for yourself, when seeing this image? I was sure it was just an oridnary spirall, but when observing it more precise, I figured out it’s actually a bunch of concentric circles… Hillarious! Did you get the same effect?

i think its because the squares are at an angle :)
its both the squares are inn a spiral thats a circcle
its circles
The eye tends to follow straight lines. Since the boxes are slightly twisted, your eye follows the edge of the box inward from the circle, making your mind think “spiral”.
hi, i was looking at this optical illusion, and then i scrolled the screen and noticed that while the image is moving up or down, the spiral seems to be spinning, is it just me?
Strangely I didn’t see the spiral first I saw circles, but when I looked at the picture the first thing I saw was the center circle and then went straight down the picture and realized it was only circles…
Everything we know (through our 5 senses) can
be described through its attributes. There is a minimum of these attributes essential to classify. For example, four legged with a tail, would refer to a class of animals. Adding to it one more attribute that it barks, brays, roars, mews, etc. would immediately give the idea of what we are referring to.
Even for the atheist God can be defined as that which cannot be reached or realized. Physicist’s defintion: Absolute Zero (0 degrees Kelvin) cannot be reached by the third Law of Thermodynamics. So,
God = Absolute 0 deg K.
Mathematician’s definition: Infinity is a limit to which you can neither add or subtract anything to make it bigger or smaller. It is a limit (in Hindu philosophy millennia before Newton’s calculus) which cannot be reached.
The Sanskrit words Nirgunabrahmam (no attributes) and sathguna brahmam (all attributes) are the limits. So,
God = Infinity.

I thought it was a “Spiral” too! If people would not have pointed out the fact that it was “Circles”, I probably would NEVER have noticed that it was not a “Spiral”! LOL!!!! Nice One!!!
That’s one of the better ones I’ve seen.
Can someone explain why do we see spirals first?
i’d love to know.

Now that is a cool illusion.
Also, if you scroll the page up and down over the image, you can sort of see a rotation effect happening.
WOW! that is so cool.
That’s pretty sweet. Saw the spiral first, and it looked normal… now, it just hurts my eyes, but I can tell it’s circles.
Clever.
I really had to concentrate to see the circles and not the spiral.
that is pretty cool… have anyothers like that???
that is pretty cool./… how do u c that
actually, i thought that it was rotating first, but mabey i’ve been looking at optical illusions for too long
best illusion that is actually an illusion in a long time
i think summits wrong with my eyes coz i saw the circles first……anywho if my eyes worked then i’m sure it would have been a good un :)
wow confuzing :S
Wow, that’s cool…confusing, though. I actually had to trace the circles with my finger to make myself believe it wasn’t a spiral! Haha.
This makes my brain bleed
That was cool!! At first I thought that it was spiral but when u look it carefully you can see its circles
that’s sick!
where are the spirals???????????
I saw the circles first, i still don’t see the spirals…..
I never saw a spiral. It always looked like circles to me. Now that I’m trying, I can kind of make myself see a spiral…
wen i looked at it i thort it woz circles from the beggining but i can see how it does look like a spiral!
i really saw circles at the beginning btw im american
thats awesome.
DUH
OMG
this is NOT real
it was photoshopped
duuhduhduhduh
nono i dont mean it lol
cool illusion
hi, i was looking at this optical illusion, and then i scrolled the screen and noticed that while the image is moving up or down, the spiral seems to be spinning, is it just me?
whoa, thats kinda creepy.
duh it’s squares.
when you scroll the page using the mouse-wheel (especially one with choppy movements), the circles give the illusion of spinning
this is so cool it almost hypniotised me
Strangely I didn’t see the spiral first I saw circles, but when I looked at the picture the first thing I saw was the center circle and then went straight down the picture and realized it was only circles…
CIRCLES, NOT SPIRALS!!!
they r circles if you look close they are not connected.
lol…this is really cool. i did see a spiral in the first place.
I saw circle first…
thats trippy….it tool me a second to see that theyre actually circles…..thats cool…^^
hahaha very funny my name its not lola its bugs bunnie
yer dude totaly wateva !!!
OK, this fooled me for a sec, but that happens a lot, so no suprise!
Chris, you’re right, cool!!
This illusion is seriously good!!
scroll up and down on the image in you really get a neat effect.
circles
God : Proof of existence!

Alwaze loved this picture!
These are NOT concentric circles. That’s the reason why they look spiral
its defently circles everyone u shood no u no i knew cos im clever ur not tho r u?
saw the circles every time b4 spirles
thats bcoz of the arrangement of those diff color squares!!!
Its look like spiral but, its circle.
Try to close your one eye then make it blur then you’ll see!
I thought it was a “Spiral” too! If people would not have pointed out the fact that it was “Circles”, I probably would NEVER have noticed that it was not a “Spiral”! LOL!!!! Nice One!!!
owowowowowowow! My head. :/
