Optical Illusions are so cool! I don’t really know what happens inside your eye, but as the word “illusion” says: your going to see things that aren’t there. Your eye can’t handle it (whatever that is…) and will “display” something else… (I just couldn’t find a better word then “display”, he he.)

Illusion 1

look at square A and B. The colors you see are totally different, right?

That’s what you think, but that’s not right! A and B have the same colors!
When you put the image in a program like paint or so, you can prove this:

Copy the first image and pace it in paint, then do the exact same as in the second image. It’s true!

Illusion 2

This is somewhat the same as one, but this time no checkerboard…

Is the bar in the middle made of one color or is it a gradient? The answer should be “one color”…
you probably allready know why you see a gradient instead: it’s because there is a gradient behind it.
