If your brain works normally this is neat.

This is another example of an amazing illusion!!! The last sentence is so true.

If your eyes follow the movement of the rotating?pink dot, the dots will remain
only one color, pink.

However if you stare at the black ' + ' in the center, the moving dot turns to green.

Now, concentrate on the black ' + ' in the center of the picture After a short period, all the pink dots will slowly disappear, and you will only see only a single green dot rotating.

It's amazing how our brain works. There really is no green dot , and the pink ones really don't disappear. This should be proof enough, we don't always see what we think we see.

Nice one eye30.

This is a great example of ‘complimentary’ colours. Pink and green are opposites on the colour wheel. If you look at any colour for a period of time and then replace it with white, you will see the ‘complimentary’ colour over the white.

Complimentary colours when used together can seem to have a psychedelic effect…


I also found some pretty cool eye tests that deal with the eyes blind spot and how the brain covers for it: http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepage ... ndspot.htm
