Why is it that this guy cannot go swimming in this lake?

Is the colour of the centre circle in each of these three patterns the same or not? Click the picture to find out.  We have added this great new picture to our Erik Johansson gallery, why not take a look at the rest of Erik's great work. 
It's not too difficult to find the still photographs in this video but some seem to pop up and surprise you when you'd least suspect it. This short little video created by mustardcuffins shows photographs that "skim across the skin of reality". Awesome concept. Thanks to the grayguy for suggesting this post This great photo looks like it could be a huge tsunami just about to hit the shore. But it also could be the clouds rolling over the mountains in the background. What do you think?  Is this ring of dots turning clockwise or anti-clockwise. well actually its not doing either. Each individual dots is circulating anti-clockwise giving the impression that the out side is going in the opposite direction inside. This great animation was produced by the guys over at Bees & Bombs, check out their website its excellent. 
Here is another hidden faces picture, you can see the first one here. There are 16 faces hidden in this optical. Click on the picture for a larger view to see if you can find them. Then click on the link underneath so see how well you did. 
This latest optical is a modification of a recent post. This time we have two trains and if you are clever enough you can make the trains change directions. If you are really smart you can make one come and one go. Give it a try. 
It's one of those 'it just won't keep still' illusions for you. We call it Up & down.  If you can read all these out aloud by saying the color of each word then the word itself without making a mistake you have an IQ over 100 Example, the first line is: ‘green-blue, red-purple, purple-green, blue-red’ 
This is an interesting flash animation. The four colored blocks are all moving at the same continuous speed, yet the black and blue blocks seems to be stopping and starting. |
