which poster is above, the grey one or the pink one? Difference of printing quality creates a strange effect, like an optical illusion.
Yuuhidai (Sunset) Point - As the name suggests, it is a famous spot in the setting sun.
Located in the corner of Shiretoko National Campsite, it is also popular as a date point for young travelers. The setting sun is beautiful in the spring and autumn when the setting sun creates a vermilion streak on the sea surface, and the winter when the sea surface covered with drift ice becomes golden.

Oronko岩（日文：オロンコ岩）是位於日本北海道斜里町宇登呂地區宇登呂港（日語：ウトロ港）旁，高度約60公尺的巨型岩石。岩石的頂部有一平坦的區域，可360度俯瞰包括宇登呂港和市區的週邊景色。[1]為知床八景（日語：知床八景）之一
岩石目前並沒有中文名稱，Oronko的名稱來自阿伊努語o-rok-watara，意思是「座落在那的岩石」，由於發音與庫頁島的原住民鄂羅克人的發音接近，也被認為可能與其有關連。
This is the back of a commercial building on the edge of an old residential neighborhood. It almost seemed to glow like a radiator as the went down.
The Bowen Falls , sometimes called Lady Bowen Falls , are located 360 meters north of the tourist boat dock, at the southeastern end of Milford Sound . They are part of Fiordland National Park . The waterfalls are fed by the 9-km-long Bowen River , which collects its water from the 2226-meter-high Mt Grave northeast of Milford Sound . With a drop of 161 m, the Bowen Falls are the highest waterfalls in the fjord.

A glory is an optical phenomenon that resembles an iconic saint's halo about the shadow of the observer. They are formed when light is scattered backwards by individual water droplets. Glories, like rainbows, are always directly opposite the sun, centered at the antisolar point. You can see them whenever mist or a cloud is beneath you and the sun breaks through to shine on it.
Glories have a bright center and their rings are delicately colored, blue on the inside changing through greens to red and purple outside. Sometimes three or even four rings are visible.
Shadows converge on the antisolar point and so glories are nearly always accompanied by your shadow or that of the aircraft you are in.
Glories are often seen from aircraft. Get a seat opposite the sun and watch them ring the aircraft's shadow - or more accurately, where your own shadow would be.
So from the shadow in this image you can see that it was taken from the pilots seat.
While the visitors were enjoying the time of sunset in the desert of Morocco, the camels sat down on the other side under the moon.

Visit the famous, mind-boggling Rotterdam landmark and marvel at this unique piece of architecture and design.
These aren’t a piece of modern art, these are houses. Yup, people actually live in these cool but weird buildings. This mind-boggling optical illusion was designed by Dutch architect Piet Blom and built between 1982 and 1984.
This is a test image in Ha only on my first large-scale target after adding a 0.8x reducer to the Tele Vue NP101. It was captured in my Bortle 6 backyard with a nearly full moon in the sky, and under marginal transparency conditions. The purpose of this test image was to verify autoguiding, autofocus, and plate solving after changing the optical system from f/5.4 to f/4.3. This is a nearly full frame that is cropped only as necessary to remove staking artifacts.
My plan going forward is to capture narrowband in my back yard, and agument it with LRGB that is captured at a dark sky site.

Here's an optical illusion for you.
While it might be fairly obvious to most people that the streaky white things in the lower portion of this photo are small blobs of foam lazily flowing downstream and captured with a 3 second expose, it might not be too obvious in which direction the river is flowing.
What do you think? Is this river (Jubilee Creek (of course)) flowing from left-to-right in this photograph, or from right-to-left?
I'm guessing that most of you will have guessed... left-to-right... am I right?
Despite the fact that I took this photo and KNOW that the creek is flowing right-to-left, I would also have guessed the other direction.
I suspect that this may have something to do with the fact that most people in the western world read from left-to-right and top-to-bottom? I can't think of any other reason for this optical illusion. Can you?
If you stare at this flower for long enough it starts to play tricks on your eyes. Looks a little like one of those images where you pull the zoom back as it was taken.
Second of two photos -- the other partly overlaps this one. Both are in the album "Utah".
A crust formed atop the sand, presumably from being wet, then the wind broke through in places and excavated the sand. To my eye, this is a persistent optical illusion. The deeper orange areas can be seen either as depressions (the correct view) or as low mounds, which makes it hard to make sense of the image. This was close to a steep bank, and the light is mostly coming from the left.
Weirdly, at least to my eye, it's easier to see the correct view in the thumbnail than when expanded. And it's easier to get the correct view in the other photo.

So I found another optical illusion while walking in the forest this morning... but this time (because it's so easy)... I'll let you try to figure it out. :)
There are also 10 bonus points to the first person who can correctly identify the egg-shaped object (with the white spot in the middle) in the lower right-hand corner of this photo. ;)
winding and crooked.
it looks like the trees are tilted to the right....
I uploaded this work for the Landscape competition in one of my first created groups: Monochrome Forms in Visual Art
A special thanks to onefastsbiker for creating the contests in this group. He is admin from the first hour and I am very greatful to him!
Enjoy the rest of your Sunday my friends and a very nice week ahead!
Sending you hugs, love and peace

I am always on the look-out for visually interesting props, this is obviously a set of fibre optic lights, consists of 6 balls which I arranged in different ways to get a pleasing composition.
The light-guiding principle behind optical fibres was first demonstrated in Victorian times when the total internal reflection principle was used to illuminate streams of water in elaborate public fountains, but modern optical fibres were only developed in the beginning of the 1950's.
An optical fiber is a flexible, transparent fiber made by drawing glass (silica) or plastic to a diameter slightly thicker than that of a human hair.
Daniel Colladon and Jacques Babinet first demonstrated the guiding of light by refraction, the principle that makes fiber optics possible, in Paris in the early 1840s.
Now that we are back on Winter time, it is dark very early, the weather's gone bad, I've had plenty of time to think and be creative in the studio once more.
And we NEED light and joy more then ever!
I am enjoying the burst of creativity, I wish you all a day full of light and THANK you for your visit and comments, so appreciated, Magda (*_*)
