Optical Illusions

[Kilted KT]

Your eyes and brain "want" to see patterns and familiarity.

Try this: Close one eye, and hold a pencil about 10-12" away from your monitor. Focus on the pencil point, and gradually move it closer to the screen. You'll notice that the "faces" become a lot more obvious when they're slightly out-of-focus.

that made my eyes go all bonkers! Might be my monitor, or my eyes...

11 on the first and ... hehehe... 9 on the second,... but I'll not tell u where is,... :mrgreen:... at least at the moment!

I finally got all 9 on the 2nd pic!!

I managed to find all of them but I had to take the bottom one into a graphics program and expand it to find some of them. The image on XMarks was just too small for my eyes to focus on the really hidden faces in the screen.

Since posting these I've learned that the 2nd pic is the work of artist Octavio Ocampo. You can see more of his work here:

Okay, one more. This is a Jpeg and not a GIF. The circles are not actually moving.

I love those kinds of illusions.

I can't focus on them because I can find all 11 but don't know how to be an "Extremely observer."

My eyes are not happy with you! It looks like I'm peering into the depths of MC Escher's worst nightmare!

Finding the last face in the second pic is challenging to say the least. I was wondering, how many out there found it and how many would like the answer?
