  • Optical illusions in photos….
  • I was looking at the Bluegrass Tuatura armoured shirt and thinking it looked a bit short on the hips, then I noticed the face….

    Anyone got any good ones?

    Thats a good one Nick, took me a minute or so to see the ‘real’ image.

    Good one captain – obviouisly grey one, but your eye is naturally drawn to the sunlit one

    Don’t get the OP. CFHs is brilliant, and I do like that camel one. Didn’t it win Nat Geo’s photo of the year?

    Edit: Now I do, and it makes me feel uncomfortable the amount of time I stared there

    I’m guessing there is something about the light and dark shadows on the left, or the front of the lycra shorts…

    The shorts:

    The padding seam is an unhappy mouth, just above is a nose and then a forehead.

    Can’t see the camel or the brickwork one. I heard the Farrage one on the radio at about 5:40 this morning.

    Those aren’t actually camels that you’re looking at.

    There are camels in the photo, but look at it from a different angle – literally. Once you see it, its clear as day 🙂

    Can’t see the camel or the brickwork one.

    Camels are actually shadows, and the ‘hills’ are just their tracks, you’re looking from directly above with a low sun.

    Brickwork, the grey splodge is cigar ash and the pointing in-front of it is actually the cigar poking out the wall about 5″ closer than you’re looking.

    I don’t get the chuckle brothers one though?

    You can’t see that her arm looks like a penis?

    (well I hope thats what it is or I’ll be rather embarrassed 😳 )

    Not really an illusion, just a photo that looks unreal.

    colournoise: interestingly that photo has been doctored, the original at http://photography.nationalgeographic.com/photography/photo-of-the-day/camel-thorn-trees-namibia/ is definitely unreal but slightly less so.
