Look at the following pictures once. Now look at them a second time, then a third time, a fourth, and so on - because even after you look at them a number of times and scan them over from top to bottom, you probably still won’t be sure what exactly it is you’re looking at. The illusions these photographs make are surprising and particularly interesting, and they stem from all sorts of reasons - from the point of view and the angle in which the picture was taken to the extraordinary way in which the subjects of the pictures were designed.
