The new breed of High Definition digital computer monitor displays allow excellent rendition of visual effects used in optical illusions compared to seeing the illusion or effect printed on paper. The brightness and brilliance of the display along with the pixel clarity bring the high resolution imagery to a whole new level.

Optical Illusions and Visual Oddities
Concentric circle spiral effect, moving bars, bending straight lines, optical illusions

Moving Bars

Optical Illusion with short colored bars create illusion of movement

In this optical illusion, it's difficult to look anywhere in this image and not sense movement elsewhere on the photo

subtle diminishing shades on altering sides of the small rectangles may contribute to this effect

The perception or misperception of a perspective point of view

Are all three spirals the same size or is one different? Are two different sizes from the third? Are they all different sizes? Hint - SAME SIZE

Are all three spirals the same size or is one different? Are two different sizes from the third? Are they all different sizes?

(Hint - SAME SIZE)

The perception or misperception of another perspective point of view

Are these trees the same size or is one different?

Of course you could assume that they are the same size since the spirals in the previous example were identical

(Hint - ALSO SAME SIZE)

Concentric Circle Spiral Effect

Changing colors, shapes, positions and shades trick the eyes into seeing a spiral image but it is only concentric circles

Optical Illusion of concentric circles that appear to be a continuous spiral

Optical illusion with Accenting Colors And Shapes

Optical Illusion Accenting Colors And Shapes

Peripheral vision is tested in this illusion looking at this image as you see motion where you don't look

Optic illusion with Colorful Feathered Spirals

Optic illusion with feathered Spirals Stare at center of this optical illusion for a few seconds then move inward or outward a little bit from the screen, outer areas move exponentially with a 3D effect

Different colored spirals feathered inward at different pitches or angles of attack

Stare at center of this optical illusion for a few seconds then move inward or outward a little bit from the screen, outer areas move exponentially with a 3D effect

Bending Straight Lines

Optical Illusion demonstrating straight lines appearing to bend or be curved due to different angles of other lines in the image.

Optical Illusion demonstrating straight lines appearing to bend or be curved due to different angles of other lines in the image. Distortion is very distinct and confuses the eye and mind creating various effects to draw the eyes in different directions.
