Alix is a vase... by cocobella

Alix is a vase...

I think everybody has seen this image before, I wanted to try with a double profile of my daughter Alix...
So, what do you see ? Alix or a vase ?
At first glance Alix, then the vase.

Well done Corinne, first I could only see Alix but by just looking at the white I see the vase!
May 4th, 2013  
Great! I just learned that this is classic "negative space" You may want to tag it that. :)
May 4th, 2013  
This is awesome. Love the abstract effect. I did something like this last year :)
May 4th, 2013  
Great shot - I always see the vase first!
May 4th, 2013  
Great idea! :)

She has beautiful profile! I saw her first, but I can also see the vase. Great classic revisited!

Awesome! I see Alix first! You should frame this!! Fav!
May 4th, 2013  
this is very creative! awesome shot and processing! fav for me!
May 4th, 2013  
Wonderful! I see both, first Alix then the vase.
May 4th, 2013  
Very clever Corinne! First Alix then the vase - but then it is hard to find Alix again. Super idea and execution.

very cool, love the silhouettes!

Beautifully done.

@kwind Alix agrees ! Thanks for the fav Kim, always very appreciated :)
@demmie thanks a lot for the fav, Alix is counting them ;) every single one makes her jump like a monkey !
@wind_of_the_sothern_sea thank you so much for the fav, my little girl is starting to feel like a star !

@cocobella aww bless her, I just read your description and i definitely see Alix first then the vase, after looking at the image(s).

It is so weird not sure if it is just me but when you switch from Alix to the vase, her face(s) go inwards, and then when you go back her face(s) go outwards, such a clever trick for the brain! This deserves many favs for the mental effect and creativity.

@demmie true...its a classical optical illusion I must admit...if you like it you must love some of the paintings of Salvador Dali...it makes your brain work a lot, this man was a genius !

Great optical illusion, the Rubin Vase. There is a Queen and Prince Philip vase which was made to celebrate the Queen's Silver Jubilee http://a2.ec-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/78/cbd326f79b4a4d0c948de3a66dd60594/l.jpg

Thanks for the link Lisa, very well done but, we really recognise them, I don't want to cause offence, and sorry Lisbeth and Philip, but the double profile of Alix is more cute ;))
