I Chose this image because i found it interesting that you could either see two old people or two young Men. I have also seen this illusion before and that is another reason I chose it. -Quentin Riser

I chose the image above because when you look at it closely you only see lines, but as you look at it from far away you see an image of Johnny Depp - Kelsey Kimbrough

[|I love this because it is very cool. I love the colors and the Animal and the awesome illusion.-Quinlan Riser]Thomas clanton I chose this because it was a facinating piece of work. The illusion lured me in. I thought this one was pretty neat. If you stare at the black plus sign in the middle for a while then the flashing pink dots around the outside will appear to alternate between pink and green. - Alex Bush



I liked this illusion because you think it is just a bunch of circles but then you realize the circles are moving. -Lauren Rein



I liked this mainly because at first I thought it was a cute rabbit at first. But then when I looked at it more closely I saw that it was also a duck. I also liked it because it is a pretty simple design and not hard to switch back and forth between the duck and rabbit. -Megan Leung

//Adamshe- i liked this image because it made the visual illusion that the center dot surrounded by little dots appeared larger than the center dot surrounded by larger dots. when they were actually the same size//

//I like this one because it really looks like it is moving. It's almost hard to realize that it's not. Layla Peach//

//I like this one because it messes with your depth perception. Especially when you realize the wings go back to the far edge of the crowd, instead of going straight up. - Kelly Moore//



//I like this illusion because it is simple, and western themed. At first you see the horses with the background, but in between the horses makes a woman's face. - Connor O'Neill//

//I chose this optical illusion because it took me quite a while to see the second image after I saw the soldier. I like it because it's funny. I was staring at a guy's crack for five minutes and didn't know it. -Austin Andrews//

//I chose this one because of how simple the big picture was but how it was all mae up of smaller pictures- Josh Capron// //[|I chose this one because at first I could not see anything wrong but the longer I looked at it the more I could tell something was wrong. - Jamal Jones.]//

//This one looks like a landscape, but also has 11 hidden faces in it. I like it because it's hard to find all 11 faces. -Jordan Jackson//



//This picture looks like and office area on a checkered floor, but if you look up, it looks like people are looking over an edge. I really like this one because it keeps you looking at it for awhile. - Lesley Iron//

//This is a drawing on the ground that is made to seem real but it done by chalk. It seems as if they are 3D but it is only done on the ground. I like this because it takes a great deal of time to complete these and i am also a big fan of the Aliens movies. The other picture is an illusion of an old man or can be percieved as a man and woman standing by an arch in the cold. I like this one because it is classic and has different perceptions. -Malikarose Abdussalaam//

//http://www.optillusions.com/dp/1-1.htm// //I chose this illusion because I enjoy the simplicity of it, and find it interesting how something so simple can play such tricks on our brain. - Aerial Smith//

//http://www.michaelbach.de/ot/mot_adaptSpiral/index.html// //I love this illusion because of the weird affect it has on vision. I have always been amazed by these types of illusion. - Kent Steiner//

//[]// //This is a bunch of illusions in one video. I really thought the one where you focus on the cross and all the dots disappear was especially cool. - Lee Cureton//

//The illusion from my link is so cool because by simple rotations, the object looks 3-D. This illusion is extremely easy to see! Click the link above to make it move to see the illusion. When it stops moving, it doesnt look 3-D. Super cool!-- Emily Scott//

//[]// I like this because i find it interesting that I can only see it when i squint. And also what the message reads is very funny.---James Harvey// I also really like this image because from far away it looks like the great Abe Lincoln, and for the longest time I thought that's all it was, but close up it is a mixture of smaller pictures. - Veronica Buening [] I like this because it looks like it is one flat image but then he shows that it is really on many different walls put together. plus it's pacman and who doesn't like pacman! -Veronica Buening = = == Both of these rings are actually perfect circles. I really liked this one because to see that they are both perfect circles it takes a lot of work and if you do see that they are perfect circles, it doesn't seem like that for long. To me, it is a very convincing visual illusion. --Maggie Wenstrup = = =Welcome to the WJC Psych 211 Wiki page!=

More info and details to follow.

==Which center circle is larger? Most say that the center circle on the left is larger. In reality, the center circles are the same size. comparison of relative size. If someone has seen this image before then they know that the center circles are the same size, but they still see the left circle as larger. This is the only optical illusion that is still and illusion to me. - Grace Clark==

[|Face Optical Illusion]
This is a neat illusion that morphs two different perspectives (a side view and a front view) of a human face into one single figure. I like this one because it effectively combines both aspects of different perspectives and shows that there's more to the picture than one may expect at first glance. --Marie "Nikki" Mader

eyetricks.com/3501.htm -I enjoyed this one because it was amusing and contained many different illusions, some that we've discussed and some that we haven't! Besides that, i likes that the guys in the video clearly enjoy what they do. :D Devi Fitelly

[|Charlie Brown Illusion]

I enjoyed this one because I really like the sidewalk illusions and I also love Charlie Brown! -Megan Wilson

[|Optical Illusion] The illusion in my link allows you to look at one image and see another. I enjoyed this because of the unique effects it has on vision and I find it interesting that something so simple can have a major effect on your brain. Leslie Moore

[] This is a video of the best optical illusions ever. There are some pretty cool ones that I have never seen and had to watch it two more times just to figure what some of them were. The last one is the best I think with the water fall. Took me a couple looks to figure that out. Enjoy. J.P. Bartmess

I really love this illusion because even if your not trying to see the grey dots you see them anyway. Plus it works with and grid that has dark squares and white lines. -Carysa Waller



 The first is another type of couple within a skull illusion, but I like how much detail goes into both images on this one. The link goes to one of my favorite pieces of 3D art: a library that has three rectangular juts out of it that cause the library to be endless and to follow you. It is really cool.- Jake Sapp

Is the window opened to the left or to the right? I like this illusion because even if you are viewing the window as if it's opened to the left, it is easy to see it also opening to the right. -Alexa Anderson



If you look at the center figure in this image it looks like a person walking away on a cobblestone road of some sort. However, if you look at it from a distance, a figure of a face appears to the left of the tree. The persons body becomes the nose, and buildings in the background become the eyes. I like this illusion because while looking at you can make out two different object. Thomas Swoboda

I found this one interesting. It is hard to focus on one side at a time. -Michael Keeler

[|Multiple Visual illusions] I thought that this site was interesting and cool. It has many illusions that I haven't seen before all on one page. I sat for about 20 mins and did most of them and couldn't believe they all really worked. - N.Non [|square.gif] I liked this one because It makes the normal square look bent.



I liked this optical illusionbecause when you look at one portion, the other starts moving, and likewise with the other portion.

-Christina Pratt

I choose this illusion because when I first saw it actually saw the face first but then I saw the buildings and tree -Ryan Trudzinski
