Julian Beever Does it Again!

Absolutely Amazing! Remember the below drawing is just chalk on the pavement.

Julian Beever has made pavement drawings for over ten years. This drawing is the best illusion of a recent batch posted on his site.

Keep repeating to yourself, "There is no hose and he isn't squirting any water." Also don't forget that the drain doesn't exist either.

Blue Spiral Rotating Illusion

Stare at the center crosshairs and move your head in and out from the screen. Sometimes when you just look to the side or relax your eyes a bit, you'll notice the Blue Spiral is Rotating.

Verbal Dual View Optical Illusions

Check out this optical illusion shirt. (Found on Neatorama)

Designed by Rachel Plefger

I love dual view images. My sister sent me the following in email. Currently I am not aware of their origin.

Update: I have positively identified the artist of the bottom two paintings. If anyone recognizes the top (Good/Evil) work please let me know so I can give the artist proper credit.


Can you see the evil residing inside the good?

It drives home visually the point that good can't exist without evil or is it the other way around.

Can you see why this oil painting is called optical illusion?

Can you tell why this painting is titled "Us"?

If you know of other dual view illusions point me in the right direction so we can all see them.

Keep staring. This is one scary optical illusion. Keep looking, it might take up to a minute, but it'll look like she's opened her ghoulish eyes and is staring right at your soul! Aaaaaaa!

Pyramid Power Optical Illusion

Answer this simple question. Is the circle:

1. Half way up the pyramid?
2. Above half way up the pyramid?
3. Below half way up the pyramid?

At this point many viewing this optical illusion pause. They know it wouldn't be an optical illusion if it wasn't different then it seems.

At first glance (even second and third glance) the circle appears above the point that is half way up the pyramid. The truth is though the circle is exactly at the half way point.

Feel free to pull the ruler out and measure for yourself.

Impossible Triangles Optical Illusion

I figure if I'm starting up posting again there is no better place to start then with a creation by Zsolt. He has been a faithful viewer of this blog and he was the first to comment on the fact that I was going to be starting up posting again. Thanks for the encouragement Zsolt.

The following 3-D optical Illusion was created by Zsolt M. Kovacs-Vajna a professor at the University of Brescia in Brescia Italy.

What you are looking at are 8 identical impossible triangles floating in space. Only the near and far triangles look like the typical illusion. The others look distorted because we are viewing them from a bad perspective (see other impossible triangles here, here, here and here).

Still having trouble wrapping your head around this image play this 3-D video. Hopefully the video will shed some light on the image.
