Sometimes, though, what we see isn't what's really there. Below are three static, non-moving pictures from Mighty Optical Illusions. Take a look at how they "move" and "float" despite being fixed objects. This is a great lesson in learning how perception is not always an accurate experience. Gives new meaning to "seeing is believing", doesn't it?

I remember a long long long time ago, I was at a friends party (and fairly done in) staring at this poster on the back of her door for hours. It was moving (like these) and I thought that if I could get my head to see that the items weren't moving, that I would be okay to move (thinking that the world was spinning and I was going to be sick). Turns out that it wouldn't have appeared to stop spinning no matter how long i stared... lol...
just reminded me of *back then*.
They hurt your eyes after awhile.
Hey Dr. Deb....I haven't been around much but popped over to say hi.
It's a good thing I don't drink or I would think that I had had too much :)
These things always blow my mind. The brain is an amazing thing!
Hope you are having a good summer :)
Its amazing what the brain can do even in the absence of "recreational drugs"
I often wonder if things like this are common visuals for children diagnosed with autism. They develop such intense stares with certain visual stimulation..
trippy!

Luv this. Brilliant how it all moves.
Er, only the third one moved for me!
The second one moves the least for me. The first and third seem more fluid to me.
