Going cross-eyed
Check out this Big Spanish Castle illusion. I wish I knew how this worked rather than just knowing how to do it.

I dont get it? I stare at the castle image for 30 seconds then I mouse over it and see a castle. What is the “illusion” .
The image is coloured.. blue sky, green grass etc..
First look at the image WITHOUT your mouse over the it.. then as you stare move your mouse over it to make it go ‘black and white’.. but your eyes are sensitized to the opposite colours and will ‘see the image’ in colour.
Sort of like getting a flash of light in your eyes and then you close them… you ‘see’ the light still.
It took me a few trys to get it but it’s pretty neat. I could even get it to work while staring at parts other than the dot.
Ya gotta love it. Goes to show just how stupid our brain can be!
