Do You See What I See?

I have always been a huge fan of optical illusions. I can spend hours searching for new fun optical illusions on the Internet. They are so intriguing. For those of you who do not know what an optical illusion is, it is seeing something differently than how it appears of seeing something that does not exist. This cool new iPad case has one of the most popular optical illusions on it. This vortex illusion makes can be looked at a few different ways. Sometimes the vortex can look like it is moving. It is also hard to tell if the vortex is "moving" away from you or "moving" towards you. How awesome would it be to carry your iPad around in a case that has an optical illusion on it. You can impress all of your friends with this awesome case and ask them if they can see the vortex "moving."

Some of my favorite optical illusions include: 

1.) IS IT AN OLD WOMAN OR A YOUNG LADY?

The image below can be seen two different ways. This is my overall favorite optical illusion. When I first saw this illusion many years ago in elementary school, I could not notice the old woman in the photo. I could only see the young lady. What looks like a choker on the young lady, is the mouth of the old woman. The part of the photo that is supposed to be the young lady's chin is the old woman's nose. Lastly, what helps me distinguish the difference between the two, is the ear of the young girl, which is also the old woman's eye. 


2.) The second optical illusion below is my next favorite. The first image i saw was an hourglass, but i realized there is an other hidden image of two people about to kiss. The white hourglass distracted me from seeing the black part of the photo, which interestingly enough is a completely different picture. 


3.) The last optical illusion I have shared is really cool because I see it as a double meaning. Not only are there two separate images to be found, but the two words, "good" and "evil" are complete opposites. Although I may be looking into this particular illusion a little too much, I made a cool discovery about it. It is funny because the word "evil" is written in white, which usually is a color that represents purity and all things good. On the other hand, "good" is written in black, the color that usually symbolizes darkness and evil.

Optical illusions are a lot of fun. It interests me to think about why different people may see one image before the other. This case can be purchased by clicking the following link: Purchase Black Illusion iPad Case.
