Caution : These images Cause Motion sickness. may cause dizziness or possibly epileptic seizures. The latter happens when the brain can't handle the conflicting information from your two eyes. If you start feeling unwell when using this website, immediately cover one eye with your hand and then leave the page. Do not close your eyes because that can make the attack worse.




Here is a possible cover art for Radiohead's album In Rainbow. There is some nice anomalous motion going on in this art.



If you take a look at the following picture , let me tell you … it is not animated. Your eyes are making it move. To test this, stare at one spot for a couple seconds and everything will stop moving. Or look at the black center of each circle and it will stop moving. But move your eyes to the next black center and the previous will move after you take your eyes away from it….



Follow the following instructions:

1. Relax and concentrate on th four small dots in the middle of the picture in about 30 - 40 secs.

2. Then take a look at any smooth single coloured surface (probably a wall) near you.

3. You will see a circle of light developing. Start blinking your eyes a couple of times and you will see an image emerging!!!

WHAT DO YOU SEE??? MOREOVER, WHO DO YOU SEE???

The following are actual photos of smoke, true some post processing was done but everything you see in these images is photographed smoke. These are the work of Csaba Mészáros of Budapest, Hungary. I asked him permission to use the "Intimacy" image and he suggested two others. The most amazing of the three is the one below titled "Mom and Baby".

This is very much like the Ferris Wheel optical illusion I posted previously, depending on how you look at her she will either be spinning clockwise or counter-clockwise. You don't believe that it is possible for your mind to see this image rotating any way but the way you see it now, do you?

One of the reasons that this is possible is that it is a silhouette and the very nature of a silhouette is ambiguous.

Try looking at the reflection and see if she reverses direction. I shift my focus to the side and can tell in my peripheral vision that she has changed direction, I then move my eyes back on the silhouette and walla she is rotating in the other direction.

What is even more amazing is that if you see her spinning clockwise then it is her right leg and arm that is up in the air, but if you see her spinning counter-clockwise then it is her left leg and arm that are up in the air.

My initial view of this illusion is that she is rotating counter-clockwise, but once I manage to see her spinning the opposite way it is hard to switch back. Which way does she appear to spin to you? Can you see her spin in either direction?

The below image is the result. This is an anomalous motion illusion so please read the caution at the top of this page.

This is how I visualize the results of sea sickness in the optical illusion world. You can see the center spiraling down toward the deck and the outside splashing out after hitting. I know it doesn't sound nice, but that's life in the world of illusions.

What do you think? Do you see any motion in this image?

This is an anomalous motion illusion, as you scan the image and your eyes move from one point to another parts of the image will appear to move. This creation was inspired by Akiyoshi Kitaoka, he is a master of optical illusions and a must stop for all fans. If you have been to his site in a while he is adding things on a regular basis

Jet Engine Optical Illusion

It is rare that an actual photograph will exhibit the feel of motion. This photo is an example of a real life anomalous motion optical illusion. Not everyone is able to see every illusion so I ask, is it just me or does this static image appear to be rotating?

Here is another anomalous motion optical illusion created by Herman J. Verwaal.

Anomalous motion optical illusions is the main reason for the warning at the top of this page. Many folks who pass by this site pass over the warning without thought, thinking that it is some sort of gimmick. However if you are prone to seizures please read the warning above before proceeding further.

Herman anomalous motion images confuse the eye and brain. This confusion allows the viewer to perceive motion in a static image. It is true the below image is a static image and is not moving.

Caution: u will go blind,



Now stare at the center for 45-60 seconds and you will see the lines become wavy before your eyes. After staring at this photo for an extended time try and read this paragraph again. You will notice that an after-image severely distorts your vision.

Here is another excellent optical illusion from Sarcone & Waeber. Look at the illusion below, five straight blue lines appear to come to life just by adding the black and white columns.

I think the illusion of flowing water is an excellent effect.

What do you think?

Below is an ambiguous image illusion similar to the Necker Cube illusion.

Which angle is pointing up?

As you look at this image your view point will shift as the image keeps changing focal points.

This painting-in-progress blends into the landscape well. This photo has not been manipulated in any fashion.

When I first saw this photo I thought the whole thing was a painting due to the shadow pattern created on his face by the hat. Strange how even with the simplest things your eyes can play tricks on you.

Neon Heart Optical Illusion

Here is an excellent neon color spreading optical illusion from Sarcone & Waeber. Every yellowish square below is the exact same color, yet most of us will see a pale orange neon heart. If you can't see it step back from your monitor and look again.

Keep in mind that the orange color doesn't exist as pixels on the screen only in your mind's eye. Each square below has the exact same yellow background.

Rotating Quadrants Optical Illusion

Here is another anomalous motion optical illusion created by Herman J. Verwaal. He expressed to me that this wasn't one of his favorites, but I absolutely love this illusion. It has multiple illusions incorporated in this image. First there is the illusion of depth. These tiles appear to be 3-D. Second he states that the center slowly rotates clockwise but I see the whole image attempting to tilt clockwise with the center even more pronounced.
