It’s the start of the weekend, and judging by the wet nasty outside my window, it isn’t going to be a very nice one! The little man also has a midget football game today, so today should be extra fun!
On a lighter note, I have a fun illusion for you today! I’ve been looking at a lot of negative space art lately, and I’ve gotten quite fond of it. I love the use of contrasting colors to create a subtle shape. A lot of times, you have to really look to see the second image. I don’t know about you, but I generally see the image in the darker portion of the negative space illusion pictures; the lighter areas of the images just don’t pop out at me right away.
What about you? Which shape did you see first in this negative space illusion first?
This one was an odd one for me, though. Unlike with most other negative space illusion pictures, I saw the bird in the lighter art of the image first. I don’t think there’s really much difference between this negative space illusions and other negative space illusions out there, so I can’t really tell you why. Maybe it’s just a fluke, or maybe I’ve already seen the image int he past and now can’t get the bird out of my head.
Which did you see first?
The eye makes the bird stand out; it’s a better bird than than it is a record player.
