Things are not always as they seem….

what first meets the eye.

We can look at the same thing and see things differently…

Einstein or Marilyn Monroe?

“At normal screen viewing distance you should see the face of the great scientist Albert Einstein. Now squint your eyes or take a few steps back from the image. Does a certain Hollywood personality pop into view? The Marilyn Einstein hybrid image was created by Dr. Aude Oliva for the March 31st 2007 issue of New Scientist magazine.“ http://cvcl.mit.edu/hybrid_gallery/monroe_einstein.html

“It is also said that those with short sightedness will see Monroe instead of Einstein initially.”http://bgoodscience.wordpress.com/2011/05/09/viral-science-einstein-or-monroe-optical-illusion/
