Cool Illusion

[TecHNooB]

Maybe illusion isn't the proper term, but it's cool nonetheless

I guess.... it seems to just be the effect of your cones resetting.

Ya, persistence of vision, i think it's called.

you know what else is cool? any time you see blue at the center of your vision it's an optical illusion. your head fills it in.

Yellow and Red buildings.
But yeah old.

I've seen a few like that, but that's the best one yet.

Oldie, but I like it.

how did they make that? I can't seem to be able to get the original image from the off-color one.

It's an animated gif - there are multiple frames embedded in the one image. If you take any image and desaturate the color (make it grayscale), and also invert the colors on the original image (blues -> oranges, reds -> greens, etc.) you'll get the same effect like this image shows.

no. take the off color one and invert the colors, it still doesn't give you the original photograph.
