Optical illusion

Look right at the center and see what happen with the spots.

You don't have to look at the center for that. :)

It is basically because your helctiplus can not observe the frequency notch of the reculuniar shift in the rotating cralutium.

But it is a spooky result in any case. If we stare at the center of Russia, will we also start to go blind to the countries that surround it?

Someone have to circle round it. Who will it be, Putin on СУ-34? :)

Choose a circle and close everything around it with a hand so that you can see only it and at some moment it will disappear.

Too complicated to me, it's much easier to look at the center ;)

ST, I'm looking at the centre of ours and still see everything! :)

Maybe it works only when you are out of "Ploshchad' Lenina" underground station? 8)

The dutch masterly painters (others aswell) certainly took advantage of these kinds of optical tricks in their paintings...Nice one!

Not of this kind! I see the trick in the quick flashes of light, and you mean static pictures.

Well....true not quite the same, but I meant threedimensional "boxes" that worked as optical tricks depending on from were you watched.
