Double Take

With just a little bit of creative or even unintentional camera angles, stuff can start to look like other stuff. Here are some real life optical illusions that might have your brain doing some double takes. So give your eyes a workout and look at some stuff that might not exactly make a whole lot of sense right away.

The human brain is a weird and interesting thing. We look for faces in just about everything, and it doesn't take much for a shadow or a few well placed windows to spark our imaginations. Sometimes skewed perspective can induce double-takes and other times it just takes a funny looking house.

Sometimes it's too hard to fight your brain, and you just have to accept that you thought the top some lady's head looks like Oscar the grouch. These and other double-take-inducing photos of skewed perspective are enough to make you think about whether or not your eyes are actually on your side.

With just a little bit of strange perspective, the human eye can be confuzzled into making you think you're looking at a giant man, an octopus-dog hybrid, or dangerous cliff when you're really just looking at a dude, some puppies and a tree. It's fun to take your brain for a spin and gander at a pile of double-take-causing illusions of warped perspective.

The brain usually does a good job figuring out what the eyes are giving it, but sometimes, when you're looking at double-take-causing images of skewed perspective, your brain just might make a mistake, and figure that that yeah, totally, that's a seagull wearing shoes. Whether it's an extra long horse or a cat with a human butt, there's no end to the strange illusions caused by weird perspective.

The eye is as good at identifying things as it is at misidentifying things, hence all these intriguing illusions of strange perspective. A small amount of playing around with the background and foreground of an image, or messing around with light and shadows can easily make one thing look like an impossibly different thing. It doesn't take a lot of skewed perspective to cause a double-take.

It doesn't take much to redirect your brain into thinking you're looking at an unbelievable occurrence. Some skewed perspective here and a shadow there can turn a puddle into an enormous lake, or two dogs into a freaky impossible double-dog. Anyway don't trust your eyes when looking at intriguing images of double-takery.

Your brain needs context to process what it sees, and messing around with that can result in double-take inducing photos of strange perspective. Here are some photos of deceptive perspective and strange placement, from pastries that look like dogs, to completely incomprehensible landscapes. Hurt your eyes with some double-take inducing images of skewed perspective.

With a camera tilt here and well placed cat there, one image can quickly become a double-take inducing image of skewed perspective. Sometimes two items will blend together so well that it takes a minute to realize you're looking at some intriguing perspective.

With some quirky camera angles, reflective surfaces and well placed shadows, just about anything can become double-take inducing photo of intriguing perspective. Stain on the ground next to a garbage can? Shazam, floating garbage can. Weirdly placed dog? Kaboom, guy with a dog face. Our eyes constantly deceive us, giving us real life optical illusions and double takery.

Your brain is doing it's best to keep up with all the information your eyes throw at it, but sometimes things don't make sense. With some weird perspective, you can confuse yourself into thinking stuff is way too big or small, floating strangely, or something else entirely.

Perspective can be a real deceitful mistress. Messing around with your line of sight can lead to some interestingly eye-confounding images that your brain won't know what to do with. There's impossible buildings, liquid cats and straight-up double-take-causing images of strange perspective.

Try as they might, eyes aren't perfect and they can be manipulated with confusing images and forced perspective. Get the wrong angle and stuff can look like its floating, the wrong size, or even like it's a completely different thing.

Sometimes something looks so impossible or out of place that the fact there's a picture like it is just straight up amazing. For more, here are a bunch of mind bending images that aren't photoshopped.

This world is full of double-take-worthy moments of strange perspective. Your eyes do a great job most of the time, but sometimes they don't exactly agree with your brain over what's going on. Bodies get swapped, people become giants, and tunnels look like underwear.

Nothing is exactly as it seems. Stuff blending into other stuff, stuff looking out of proportion, and other stuff that just seems...wrong. Navigating the off-ness, is like push-ups for your eyes. If you wanna see more pics of skewed perspective, then check these out.
