LITERAL: A black and white Jesus. ABSTRACT: If stared at nonstop for a while, the image of Jesus Christ will be shown when you blink. FEELINGS: I like this optical illusion because while it is obvious, it is also surprising. CULTURAL/SOCIAL: Made in the early 2000s, this is a popular optical illusion.
LITERAL: A painting of a tiger stood in the open. ABSTRACT: The words Hidden Tiger are formed by the tiger's stripes, this illusion is somewhat hard to find out without being told. FEELINGS: Again, I like this one, simply because it is both hard to see but also so out in the open. CULTURAL/SOCIAL: Popular image online, very modern.
LITERAL: Two faces on either side with many stripes. ABSTRACT: There are actually at least 5 faces in this image. FEELINGS: I was told that there are actually 7 faces but I am unable to find them, this annoys me. CULTURAL/SOCIAL: Again, popularised online, but I believe this image was pained. Therefore, probably first seen in a magazine/forum for optical illusions.
LITERAL: Many dots and circles. ABSTRACT: A completely still image that looks as if it is moving when your eyes move around the image. FEELINGS: Whenever I see this kind of image, I feel confused and a little dizzy because it is a still image that looks to be moving, which is odd. CULTURAL/SOCIAL: Likely seen in a magazine or compilation of illusions.
LITERAL: A black and white hand. ABSTRACT: There is the face of a lion in the middle of the hand, perhaps this is a hidden meaning that there is a bit of fierceness (because of the lion) in us all. FEELINGS: I like this image because I believe it is a very realistic image, apart from the fact that it is a lion.
LITERAL: Purple and green odd shapes. ABSTRACT: If focused on one corner of the image, the middle seems to be collapsing into itself. FEELING: Another very odd feeling image because of how it moves when it is clearly a still image. CULTURAL/SOCIAL: One last time, this image will have been doing rounds online, in optical illusion magazines and so on.
