Do you want to see how your eyes can play tricks on you?

POLKA DOT OPTICAL ILLUSION

Follow the movement of the rotating pink polka dots with your eyes. You will (most likely) see only one color...PINK. But if you stare at the black + in the center, the moving dot turns to GREEN. Now, focus on the black + in the center of the picture. After a short period of time, all the pink dots will slowly disappear—and you will only see a rotating green dot! It's amazing how our brain works. There really are no green dots, and the pink dots don't really disappear. The moral of the story? We don't always see what we think we see!
