Unique Camouflage Techniques

'
Looking at the various pictures below may make you wonder what the objects are.

The painting done conceal an object.

The object is a warship.

This form of camouflage was used long ago before radar was invented and deployed.

Gorgeous isn't it?

Skewed Rectangles

.
When lines are inter-mixed together, they form images that is beyond the comprehension of our eyes.

See for yourself the below rectangles.

Do they seem to be right-angled?

They are! (to be frank). It is our eyes that are playing tricks......... again!



Interesting, don't you find it?

Flat Plane or Otherwise


Looking at the above picture, do you notice something fishy?
It seems normal with a block going through the ribs.
This is another impossible situation if the light blue plane is flat (except of the centre rib).
Can you see why?
Geometry is helpful in this matter to guide our frame of view to expose the "wrongs".

Blurred Image

Depending on the reflection from a surface, you may find all sort of images reflected.

The images formed may at one time differs from another time.

By looking at the image, especially a blurred one, you may see or imagine many things.

What do you see in the reflection below?



Is there any other things you can see also?

Like the saying "A picture tells many stories". Does this one satisfies the statement?

Brain-eye co-ordination is amazing and gorgeous.

What do you think?

Weird Crossed Plane


Beautifully placed across each other are these three planes.
They are closely linked with an abnormal perspective.
Can you figure out what is so striking about their layout?
Drawing can be deceptive, and flaws not noticed with loosely scanned through.
This can be one of them.
Enjoy...
:D

Seeing To Unbelieving - A Cross-Legged Figure


Look! A special cross-legged figure.

It looks like a human with one leg lifted. Or does it?

Is the figure possible?

Is the geometrical alignment possible?

Can you believe your eyes that this figure is feasible in real life?

Unbelievable that drawing can expose many weakness in our vision.
This is one of them. Deceptiveness at play...

Collective Deception of the Eye



By looking at the shades of black and white above, what do your eyes see?

Do you see lines waving at the middle rows?

Do you really think that the lines are straight?

Do you trust your eyes?

Our brain is a powerful machine. It tries to compute or analyze what its counterpart, the eyes, observe. It then do some processing to make sense of the images that comes from the eye inputs.

It is a very interesting tug-of-war between brain and eye.
This is human nature.
Gorgeous isn't it?

By the way, the lines are straight and not bent as seen by our eyes.

Art of Camouflage



Look at the picture above.



Do you see a herd of stripped animals?



Can you see the difference between the single animal and the herd of them?

The art of camouflage ensures that when animals of the stripped form gathered together, they can look like a piece of "unknown".

Is it a big monster? Or is it a flat piece of stripped wall?

Standing alone reveals the animal clearly.

Our eyes, therefore, look at objects from their outline perspective. When this outline is broken, we are not able to differentiate or identify the object, in this case, the animal within the herd above.

Marvellously created and gorgeously formed camouflaging technique!

Therefore, in conclusion, sometimes we see things that may not be what they are.

Interesting?

Big Or Small, Our Eyes Can't Tell

Our eyes can deceive us.

Look at the two sets of smilies above.
Can you tell which smily at the centre of the two sets is bigger?

Yes, I know your answer is the one on the right.

You are WRONG!

Why?

They are of the SAME size. Cover up all the surrounding smilies and you will see why.

Our eyes do tell lies. Sometimes looking at pictures on the overall give us a distorted message.

Staying focus at times serves us better, as the example above proved.

Gorgeous images.... ... ..

Path To No Peak



This is an illusion whereby the peak to the path is non-existence.

Moving along the gray coloured path leads you to no peak.

Try it.

Get what I meant?

Our eyes can sometimes see things that our brain cannot comprehend. It therefore requires more information through other senses to decipher the mystery.
