Illusion
Hello everyone: Things are not always as they appear
I hope you are having a wonderful weekend. Check-in for November 4th-6th.
Thought that I would give us all a chance to let our senses get a bit of exercise.
Did you know that when we look at something, we are using the visual cortex sense. It then sends a message to the brain to interpret what it saw. Sometimes the wrong message is sent, so the brain only sees what it was told. This is an optical illusion.

Let’s have some fun, tell me what do you see in the Picture?
@scarletPear1945
I first saw 2 white faces looking at each other...then I closed my eyes for a few seconds and I saw a black vase. ....I love these optical illusions. :)
@Bubbleducky
Great job, you were able to receive a true image of what you saw😊
@scarletPear1945 this is amazing. It depends on whether I focus on the white or the black which kind of object I see. Our own expectations and habits of seeing can make the world seem a certain way.
@soulsings
Thanks Soul.
You are right the way we look at something can may a world of difference.😊
@soulsings
That's how it works for me, too. Strange, but fun.
@scarletPear1945, thanks for sharing!
@scarletPear1945. First I saw a black vase. Then I saw the 2 white faces. It’s very interesting.
@adventurousBranch3786
Thanks, Branch, This is a good example that everything we see may not be the whole. Our eyes can deceive us and our brains translate the wrong message.
Thanks for participating
@scarletPear1945
My first vision was the two white faces.
@DelicateButterfly78
You did good, you have a good perception.
Thanks
@scarletPear1945
A vase or two about to kiss.
@OrToNot oh! the first I saw was the two faces!
@OrToNot
Right on both of those,
very good
@scarletPear1945 I love threads like these, I see two figures that look men facing each other
@SirenOfSerenity
I saw them too but only after I read your answer!
@SirenOfSerenity
🤣🤣Good
They kind of look like George Washington to me.
@scarletPear1945
What a great idea for a post! I love it scarlet!
Well, well, well, I saw different things tbh. I saw 2 women in long dresses, standing, I saw 2 chicken faces and a vase. 😊
@amiablePeace77
Wow, Ami, you have a very observant eye. Great job. Thanks. It is amazing how the eyes and the brain work.❤️😊
@scarletPear1945
I saw the black vase/candle holder first and when I focused I saw two white faces.
@Shadowseeker11
Good job, and thanks for allowing your eyes to communicate with your senses. This was a mental exercise that makes us focus on what is really there.
Great job😊
@soulsings
Soul, looks like 6 but I know that is not right, so I looked then I saw 7🤣. I knew that could not be then on close examination I see 4 and the outline that appears to be more legs.🤣🤣🤣
I love it.
@scarletPear1945 I faced the same challenge. I saw 6 but then the official answer was 4.
Anyone have another illusion?
@soulsings
I got my husband to look at the picture and he immediately saw 4 legs, but the vase he could not see the faces🤣
@scarletPear1945 everyone perceives differently. Thanks for sharing that.
@scarletPear1945
I see 12 birds having a pyjama party in Ibiza 🎉 😂
What did I win?
@CatzInTheCradle

Enjoy. Can all of us share them with you?😊
