Optical Illusions & Interesting photos
Archive: 37 posts
| Im really interesting in these type of photos so thought id share some with you all. You may or may not have seen some of these already. Feel free to add your own! On the first two you have to stare at the middle of the picture for 30-40 seconds, preferably without blinking! Then stare at a blank light coloured wall or ceiling and an image will appear! Have fun looking!  http://i745.photobucket.com/albums/xx100/Fenderjt/opt2.jpg http://i745.photobucket.com/albums/xx100/Fenderjt/opt8.jpg http://i745.photobucket.com/albums/xx100/Fenderjt/opt5.jpg http://i745.photobucket.com/albums/xx100/Fenderjt/opt4.jpg http://i745.photobucket.com/albums/xx100/Fenderjt/opt6.jpg http://i745.photobucket.com/albums/xx100/Fenderjt/opt7.jpg http://i745.photobucket.com/albums/xx100/Fenderjt/opt15.jpg http://i745.photobucket.com/albums/xx100/Fenderjt/opt16.jpg http://i745.photobucket.com/albums/xx100/Fenderjt/opt11.jpg http://i745.photobucket.com/albums/xx100/Fenderjt/opt14.jpg http://i745.photobucket.com/albums/xx100/Fenderjt/opt10.jpg http://i745.photobucket.com/albums/xx100/Fenderjt/opt19.jpg http://i745.photobucket.com/albums/xx100/Fenderjt/opt9.jpg http://i745.photobucket.com/albums/xx100/Fenderjt/opt12.jpg | 2010-05-06 14:14:00 Author: Fenderjt  Posts: 1969 |

| I really love these, called stereograms. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v239/Almwitch05/stereogram.jpg http://www.testmeat.co.uk/photos/images/stereoscopic.jpg Have to cross your eyes to see the images as this 3d kind of looking thing. best way I can describe is to look at the top one as if your looking at something behind it, then it will blur and should eventually come into focus when your brain works out the patterns. Second one you have to cross your eyes so the image separates into two copies of itself, then you uncross slowly until the two middle ones overlap so it should look like 3 of the images. The centre one will come into focus with a 3d look to it as well. I_I = image I_I I_I (side by side)= cross eyes so its blurred = I_I I_I I_I I_I(2 versions now albeit somewhat blurry!) +focus a little = I_I I_I I_I if that makes sense.. | 2010-05-06 16:44:00 Author: OneEyedBanshee  Posts: 1370 |
| Oooo its making my eyes go funny lol i cant work the top one out, i can see theres loads of people though! | 2010-05-06 16:57:00 Author: Fenderjt Posts: 1969 |
| There's a trick to it but once you figure it out it's easy to do it. They are also commonly know as magic eyes. It actually has nothing to do with the pattern lol. It forms 2 waves, the top one says in and out and the bottom one says out and in. I just thought it was a good example because the 3d effect is quite noticeable when you get it. Some are a lot more subtle. It is a bit odd, you have to mess around with focusing your eyes near the end when it's just starting to appear well I do anyhow. Bearing in mind you have to be looking through it sort of. A tip I seen before is to imagine a white ball floating above and behind the image or in this case your monitor. Then imagine the ball floating down behind the monitor(stops behind the magic eye) and just keep looking at the imaginary ball. The blurry magic eye should do its thing then after a few seconds to a minute. If it just looks like a mess still after a while your probably not getting it right lol. | 2010-05-06 17:48:00 Author: OneEyedBanshee Posts: 1370 |

| Cool thread Tia, here's my all time favourite. Does the brown square at the top of the Rubik's cube appear to be identical in colour with the yellow square this is in the middle of the side? http://www.softexpressions.com/Merchant2/graphics/00000001/bkA1/ActOp4.gif http://i875.photobucket.com/albums/ab311/SR20DETDOG/Other%20Junk/Cube.jpg | 2010-05-07 10:06:00 Author: SR20DETDOG  Posts: 2431 |
| Cool, but i dont get it? lol How can brown and yellow be identical in colour?  | 2010-05-07 10:30:00 Author: Fenderjt Posts: 1969 |
| Cool, but i dont get it? lol How can brown and yellow be identical in colour? Haha that's the point. I actually really hate this, just because it screws with your head so much. | 2010-05-07 10:33:00 Author: SR20DETDOG Posts: 2431 |

| they are the same shade of grey because B is covered by the shadow... making it seem darker then it actually is. also the baackground colours are different, effecting you eyes. quite cool when you think about it. nice. http://z.about.com/d/puzzles/1/0/D/S/020.jpg | 2010-05-07 18:40:00 Author: Pattington_Bear  Posts: 777 |

I couldnt do the very first one you posted, but i could do all of these!! Keep em coming Please!!! | 2010-05-08 00:31:00 Author: Shhabbazz  Posts: 746 |
| Dont worry Fender, i cant see them eather. But i can see this http://www.premierphotographer.com/illusions2.gif http://boomeryearbook.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/byb-optical-illusions-fadingcolor-blue-dot-in-green.jpg just look at the dot in the middle, see what happends | 2010-05-08 00:50:00 Author: Unknown User  |
| OH MY GOD! lol I stumbled on this youtube clip it is so cool seriously. It's like a stereogram but in motion. You have to do this one folks! It's the cross eye technique. I think it is as good as avatars 3d effects lol. You can watch it full screen and really decent quality on youtube for maximum effect. There's a tutorial at the start so you should be able to get it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBa-bCxsZDk&feature=related Another, just random environment stuff, can be tricky every time it changes scene eyes tend to refocus. some nice 3d effects though. Must find some crazy action scenes! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAbisOKNVyY&feature=related Beginning to ponder effects of sitting here with my eyes crossed for ages lol Rollercoaster! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dG4s6WoREpg&feature=related Um yeah it's a bit bizarre but some slow motion 3d effects and they are very high quality, as with all these vids I'd suggest full screen! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTFKtVQGWIg&feature=related Again kinda random but some very nice 3d effects going on! That's it for this post lol I think you can mull through those lot for now, my eyes are feeling a bit mangled! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3W_O2V3GsUs&feature=related | 2010-05-08 01:55:00 Author: OneEyedBanshee Posts: 1370 |
| I can get the dots to overlap each other but everything is so blurry and i don't seem to be gett ing the 3D effect Oh well i'll keep trying. | 2010-05-08 03:12:00 Author: SR20DETDOG Posts: 2431 |
| I'm not sure but you could be trying too hard lol although I doubt that makes sense. The eyes tend to do most of the work automatically. Just pointing them in the right direction should get some sort of reaction. Once it is focused the centre image is 100% crystal clear while the two on either side are blurry. I guess just keep trying, I'm so used to it it just happens very quickly mostly. | 2010-05-08 04:25:00 Author: OneEyedBanshee Posts: 1370 |

But move your eyes around from one wheel to the next, and all of them appear to be spinning. I quoted your post to make sure that wasn't a gif... wow, lol, that's the most powerful motion illusion I've seen yet. | 2010-05-08 06:05:00 Author: Incinerator22  Posts: 3251 |
| Here's another one of my favourites, and no it's not a gif. http://totful.com/ScinGrid.jpg I also love this one, Add up the row of numbers out loud, going from top to bottom. 1000 20 30 1000 1030 1000 + 20 --------- ? ? ? ? The answer is 4100, NOT 5000 or any other number you may have got ok last one, Does a dark grey block appear to rest on a light gray block? Cover the middle to find out. http://infohost.nmt.edu/~armiller/illusion/jpeg/craik.jpg | 2010-05-08 07:39:00 Author: SR20DETDOG Posts: 2431 |
| Not quite an illusion but try this: Count how many letters F's appear in the CAPS sentence. Make sure to conceal you answer by putting it in spoilers or by coloring it white.

| Are there 5 F's? Darn missed this one, FINISHED FILES ARE THE RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS | 2010-05-08 08:07:00 Author: SR20DETDOG Posts: 2431 |
| I found 6 Fs | 2010-05-08 14:01:00 Author: Killian  Posts: 2575 |
| My guess 6? | 2010-05-08 14:04:00 Author: OneEyedBanshee Posts: 1370 |

| Very cool pictures, some of them I've not seen before. You might like MC Esther; he's a painter who painted many illusions back in the 20's, and also drew that one picture up there with the two hands drawing each other. | 2010-05-09 00:01:00 Author: Voodeedoo  Posts: 724 |
