Classy Illusion
I found this on my stumbles on the WWW… and just had to share it with all of you!
The Squares marked A and B are exactly the same colour!!!
To check this out, just copy paste the image into any image software… then cut paste a tiny part of square A into a new window, and then copy paste a tiny part of square B into another window… check out both the colours, you will see that amazingly, unbelievably they are the same!!!
Seeing is Believing? Not quite huh?!


gotta stare long enough at B to “darken it” lol
time well spent !
Jai Gurudev Bau,

i tried it in MSPaint

Thanks Bau
Jai Gurudev

Jai Gurudev
so the learning here is always wat is u c is not reality so where is the boarderline? means where seeing make sense and where it is non-sense? hope u will clearify from ur experience…..
you’ve become very quiet all of a sudden ! what happened?? i miss your posts !!
I tried it…Very nice bhaiya
The colors are same!
ps: and your twitter too !!
I dont think there is any learning here… its just pure fun
You could ofcourse complicate it as much as you wish to
hehe bau…:D
reminds me of Ashtavakra commentary when Guruji tells to “tilt your eyes…!”
Bau, please keep a “send this article to your friends” link on your page na.. I would like to recommend this artcile to many people!
Anyways, I would do it manually right now.
Jgd.
can’t digest it!!
yes, the only way to *see* that the colors are the same is to take a printout and hide the neighbouring cells with your hands.
Then, you will *see* that they are indeed the same color.
The eye adjusts the color perception based on surrounding information that it processes..
v. nice !
the environment influences you so much, unless you are out of the illusion!
jgd, abhay
wowwwww!!!!!!! that was mind blowing. i love illusions, and this is simply unbelievable..
thanks bawa
Jai Gurudeva !
Damn! What the ….?
All my illusions err… concepts err… something is shattered within me
JGD.
indeed superb bau.
i initially thought that the effect is because the grren cylinder gives a shadow, but still, it seems quite different thought it isn’t so!! abhi’s explanation sounds ‘sound’.
Ya its an illusion………… infact squares A & B are of different colours the solid cylinder’s casts its shadow over B & this makes it to look dark….. but the color tool in paint cant see this shadow phenomena…..he he he he
Jai Gurudev……………
