Count 'em up.

Now that you've finished, be advised that the correct answer is three. Not four.
- Magenta
- Orange
- Green-blue
That's right: The green and blue are actually the same color.
Explanation at the Bad Astronomy Blog
Wow, I thought 4, that's pretty amazing. You can see that the Blue and Green are actually the same color by slowly paging down until there is only about a 1/4 inch of the picture left on the screen. Then the blue and green both look green.

there are some really cool illusions in there, my favorite happens to be post #9
I have had numerous arguements over that one, even after breaking out gimp and showing them with color picker. I am assuming I will have the same road to travel with this one.
Fascinating.Quote:

I visited disney land with my 5 year old. She wanted to go on the haunted house and got very frightenned by the ghosts and such... Wife really blasted me for letting her go....
I set out to redeam myself by showing my daughter how the effects were done.
The Pepper's ghost effect was a fun thing to duplicate for holoween last year. All you need is a strong light, 60$ worth of plexiglass from Home Depot and some wood to keep the plexiglass in place.
The principle is the same as the glare on your windsheild when somebody durns on a light inside the car in the evening.
Daughter was still scared though.
Thats pretty cool....i still say 4...even after reading the expl...:ols:
That's a good one, China (the new one). I should dig out a bunch of mine from the Gestalt studies.
Yea, i still cant get that to work.Quote:

wow, really convincing illusion. i opened it in photoshop and yeah, the "green" and "blue" are exactly the same color. (rgb: 0 255 150)
Once I read that it was the case and looked for it, you can start to tell. But at first glance, they look much different. Very cool illusion.
