We love taking photos and we love optical illusions. Add these two things together, give them a shake and we have a recipe for some fantastic images that will make you scratch your head.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Vintage Optical Illusion<\/h2>\n

\"Best<\/p>\n

If you thought that optical illusions were a modern thing then take a look at this classic. It is pretty simple but looks rather amazing.<\/p>\n

The Floating on the Beach Illusion<\/h2>\n

\"Best<\/p>\n

It took me ages to work out what was really going on here. It looks for all the world like the woman is floating above the sand on some sort of magical flying carpet. Spoiler Alert: the shadow is the shadow of a flag.<\/p>\n

The Plane Illusion<\/h2>\n

\"Best<\/p>\n

When this poor chap went to see a show of aerial prowess he presumably didn\u2019t expect the planes to come flying out of his ears.<\/p>\n

The Weird Legs Photo<\/h2>\n

\"Best<\/p>\n

I\u2019m going to come clean here and admit that I have no idea what is going on here. I\u2019m guessing that the colour of the guy\u2019s shorts is causing the optical illusion but I just can\u2019t be sure whose legs are which in this photo.<\/p>\n

The Llama Illusion<\/h2>\n

\"Best<\/p>\n

This is a cool optical illusion of a llama putting his head in the perfect place at the right time. The next time I see one I\u2019m going to try and recreate this exact same photo.<\/p>\n

The Little Person Illusion<\/h2>\n

\"Best\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This is a clever photo, as it fools us into thinking that the guy in the chair is tiny. In fact, he\u2019s a lot further away than he appears to be. I would quite like one of those chairs, I think.<\/p>\n

The Which Way Is Up Illusion<\/h2>\n

\"Best<\/p>\n

This is a brilliantly weird photo. It was only when I noticed the bottle of water that I could be sure which way is up. I don\u2019t know where this optical illusion photo was taken but I\u2019m guessing that it is somewhere specially built to make it look like really confusing. Either that or some architect completely lost the plot.<\/p>\n

Another Weird Legs Photo<\/h2>\n

\"Best<\/p>\n

This lady\u2019s legs look really weird at first, don\u2019t they? Again, it is colour of the side panels (or whatever they\u2019re called) against the background that makes it such a great optical illusion. Just be careful about where you walk when you wear clothes like this.<\/p>\n

The Fallen Head Illusion<\/h2>\n

\"Best<\/p>\n

This is another brilliant illusion that it takes a minute or two to understand. At first it genuinely looks as though someone\u2019s head has seriously fallen off. Upon closer inspection, well, it still looks as though someone\u2019s head has fallen off. Upon even closer inspection I\u2019m still mightily confused but I can see a blonde head at the back that appears to belong to the woman with the bare back. That would mean that the loose head belongs to the person with the white t-shirt and is just strangely angled rather than floating about.<\/p>\n

The Small Woman and Giant Pringles<\/h2>\n

\"Best<\/p>\n

Is this a small girl or a really giant pack of Pringles? The lack of perspective in places like salt plains can lead to incredibly creative pictures if you put some thought into it. In this case, it led to a fantastic optical illusion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
