Your Eye-Tricks and Mind-Blowing Photos

August 16th, 2012
Have you ever created a photo that played an eye-trick or made the viewer wonder, “How did he/she do that?” If so, post ‘em here!

Remember, it can be any photo that tricked the eye or just blew the mind! In other words, optical illusions. Maybe you used a clever point of view, a strange angle, a unique crop that changed the perspective, or some creative processing. If you want, you can reveal how you did it…or keep the method to your madness a secret! :D

Here is mine:

I actually *hate* this photograph, but it's got 7 times more views on Flickr than any other photo I've taken.

To not give the game away too easily, I'll just say that there is absolutely no Photoshop or camera trickery here, but it's also a perfectly normal laptop.

CANDY LIPS & A BUBBLE GUM TOUNGE
It would have to be this one. Out of many shots it was the only one that i ended up with the reflection of my whole bedroom on the bubble. Still really do not have a clue how it happened?

@abirkill your shot reminded me of a shot I took way back in September 2011....

@abirkill @kbradbury Can i guess? Did you guys take a picture of the background, load it on your PC as wallpaper and then place the PC dead in front of the exact spot that you took the picture?

No photoshop or camera tricks here, either. And, the water in the glass is not green.

don't know about mind-blowing, but look at my little tiny colleagues having lunch

THESE ARE NOT MY IMAGES, but creations of those that I follow. I'm a big fan of these talented artists. I don't see them post on here regularly now that they'd finished their first year (I think Elke still does!) I followed a few more but their accounts were already deactivated. I wish they come back to share with us their mind-blowing work of art.
