A Changing Perspective

Optical Illusion

I walked by the Visual Illusion Company again yesterday. The first time I saw this trick of the eye was back in November. That time I didn't notice it until I looked at the photo on the computer. This time I saw it as I lifted the camera. The perspective of the barrels change back and forth all the time.

Lucky you told me what they are, they look like spotlights.

Looks like paint can lids at Lowe's.

I can't believe how quickly they went from left to right and back again. Very interesting.

I just saw it after you explained it. Very cool. It actually "jumped." :)

I didn't read your comments before looking at the image and I saw the illusion immediately.

Then I realized from your comments that this was an intentional.

Nicely done...

Plays with my eyes but I love it. . .goes nicely with the photo of the full moon above, too.
