Mind-bending optical illusion has hidden depths – but not everyone can see it

THIS mind-bending optical illusion has hidden depths but not everyone will be able to notice.

The image shows a blue pupil inside a red eye socket on a plain black background.

Posting on , scientist Tom Stafford said most people will think the color red is closer.

He said the blue “looks deeper or further away”.

Stafford added: "There is an incredibly strong depth - the blue and the red appear as if they are at different distances."

The scientist shared a reverse copy of the picture, showing a red pupil and blue eye socket.

He added: “I can enhance the effect by blinking rapidly, turning the brightness up on my screen, and viewing in a dark room.

“The colors appear at different depths they even appear to glide separately when I move my head from side to side.”

The effect is known as chromostereopsis.

When colors such as red and blue are placed alongside each other, it's tricky to focus on both.

The wavelengths of the colors stimulate different parts of the eye.

Sometimes, it is difficult to read blue text on a red background and vice versa.

Meanwhile, ’s mystical painting reveals what people fear most when in love.

If you spotted a man's face first, it means your focus and enthusiasm makes you a pleasure to be around.

But, you're scared of being seen as having emotional baggage.

If you saw the boy, you're probably a jubilant and wistful person at heart and love being around people.

You don't like being the center of attention but you also can't go without being in a crowd of familiar faces.

But what you hide in relationships is a fear of being a grown-up.

And, another one of Shupliak's mind-bending images consists of a glaring face, a musician smoking a pipe, and a horse.

What you initially see in the painting reveals what people first notice about you.

If you noticed the horse, it means the first thing people notice is your intense eye contact.

But, if you spotted the musician, it means people will see your sense of humor first.
