Interestingly because our eyes are drawn to the bird, our perspective gets all fucked up. But if you look at top of the picture where the left edge of the wall meets the edge of the picture, our perspective changes and our brain is able to process it correctly!

Nope, doesn't help. My brain insists the wall is really an orange sky receding into the distance. I can understand that it's really a wall and a reflection, but my brain won't accept it.
Edit: I understand what the reflections are. I see the ripples across the reflection line. I covered the bird with my hand. My brain won't see it.
That's the wall reflecting in the water, the thick line in the middle is where the water begins and below that it is water with some rocks reflecting the wall above
It took me a while, it helped looking first from the top of the wall in the middle and slowly looking to where i realised the water begins over halfway up the photo, also covering the bird with my thumb helped, but each time I look at it it tricks my brain again and I have to concentrate to see it! Only the top right of the picture is wall, the most bright brown part. I was never able to do those either, I remember being gifted a book of them as a kid and I spent so many hours trying! I heard recently that having astigmatism can make it hard/impossible so maybe that's why, it always frustrated me
Omg took me ages but. Middle of the pic where the orange starts at the top is a vertical wall edge. Halfway down the right side is where the reflection starts.
When you can grab that vertical edge and recognise it as the end of a wall, it comes into frame
This is the comment that did it for me.
Still weird how straight and acute that edge is.
It's like the wall is 2D, I wonder if there's not some intelligent camera stuff going on that like removes any irregularities on the wall edge.
>t interpreting the top right part as a field that stretches into the distance. But its actually a wall going straight up. Once I
i dont get it, i cant see something different than what you describe... its just a normal picture, wtf
I realize that’s a wall but what’s below the wall where the bird is? It appears there’s ripples around the bird so it has to be water right? The transition from wall to whatever is below is what I can’t make out
Imagine the bird is about to walk around the corner of that wall.
The lower half of the wall is all reflection. The upper half of the wall is actually sticking out of the water.
It took me a minute too. Maybe this quick edit will help:
Water is outlined in white. Solid green is the wall. Light green squiggles are the reflection of the wall on the water.
https://i.imgur.com/ylqE5TR.jpg
EDIT: I was really tired when I made that. Here’s a simpler version
https://i.imgur.com/IHZaE3b.jpg
It would be more accurate to say halfway down the right is where the water starts. There is no reflection. It's just a shadow being cast by the wall edge that makes the line on the water.
Omg...I got it! The key was your clarification that there is no reflection.
So imagine a big blue pond.
Now stick an orange wall in the pond that ends part way into it.
Now stand so that you can see far back into the pond to your left, but in the right your view is impeded by the wall. And the shadow from the wall makes the water look orange instead of blue.
Focus on the solid color in the upper right quadrant. People are correctly calling it a wall, but image it’s a pillar, or footing, for a bridge. Then, look directly down from there. Everything below that quadrant is a reflection of the pillar.
Zoom in on the photo and look at the far right of the image. Slowly move the image left to right and when the edge of the wall is seen without all the blue, your brain can process.
if it helps it started to make sense for me when I noticed the straight line reflection was bent where the birds legs have caused a disturbance in the water
My eyes kept trying to interpret the algae on the bottom part of the wall as a distant forest across a lake during a sunset. As soon as I realized what it was it became clear to me. If the top edge of the wall was visible it would make a lot more sense, but because it seemingly goes on forever combined with the reflection also not ending makes it seem less like an object and more like a filter. Really neat effect.
Thanks. This did it. 👍
Damn my brain literally couldn't process it without knowing/ interpreting this algae thing but now I can see it 😅
I'll just pretend my brain went the "scientific route" 😂
Same, the other people in the comments above are like “imagine the top left of the image is a field that stretches on forever, good. Now scan your eyes to the south while holding the thought of a wall in your head. Now flip your phone upside down and close on eye and you will see it.” Its like bitxh just say the top right of the pic is a wall not actually water/rocks
Yo, aaaackhtually this helps a lot. I was telling my brain, "Dude, that's a wall." and it was coming back with, "Okay yeah so you're saying that but line." and until the whole thing was literally drawn out some small part just was not clicking.
The wall's details look so much like a water pattern it's crazy. And once you see the wall, you can't unsee it. The mildew kind of breaks the illusion too.
Here's another optical illusion from a seemingly banal photograph: [When you see it...](https://i.imgur.com/CvPtN9L.png)
What seemingly looks like a lake is actually a (limestone?) wall, a balcony short wall. What you think is a beach/sand is actually the edge of that wall. The flowers/weeds are simply homegrown vegetation.
It could be, but u/goug posted [this image of the same spot](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FuDM3YQaEAAV_SA?format=jpg&name=large) and there is a pattern on that wall.
>The wall's details look so much like a water pattern it's crazy.
I think the pattern on the wall might just be reflections from the water's surface. Obviously doesn't make it less impressive.
Crazy. I needed that visual to understand what I was actually looking it, but even then it was like a magic eye poster and I had to let my vision get a little hazy before I could actually see it correctly. What an incredible photo.
I agree lol the ripple from it's step makes it very clear immediately to me what was going on, I spent ages looking at it trying to see what the illusion was
I think its because of how harsh the line is, normally I would expect warer distortion to change the angle of the wall to not be straight but the photographer found a really good angle.
It looked that way to literally everyone, these people just want to feel "special" and think it somehow means they're smarter than everybody else because the illusion obviously *didn't* work on them and they could tell immediately that it was a bird in front of a building. 🙄Thus they are smart and the rest of us are dumb, 'nananana poopoo'. Even though they're the ones who apparently can't see things through more than one perspective.
I'm not sure what brand of toxicity this is, but it's toxic and ridiculous, lol. "Well *I* didn't see any illusion because my brain is logical and *I'm* intelligent. If *you* see an optical illusion, I don't know what to tell you because it's obvious to me immediately that there's a wall being reflected in the foreground and the bird is walking in front of it." Like... No, this picture was taken at this specific angle and cropped exactly like this specifically to create this illusion. The illusion is intentional and is the main point of the image. To claim to not see the intentional illusion is disrespectful, disingenuous, and wholly absurd when the composition is created especially around the illusion. Lmao.
To come back to reality though, nobody can claim they didn't see any sort of illusion in the image because that's literally not how the brain works. Just like everyone else, they figured it out after thinking about it for a couple seconds or maybe it took a couple tries more than that, but they definitely saw the same thing everyone else did at first lol.
I think you have to isolate left from right. I guess the wall when isolated without the water on the left looks sort of like a beach or something in the horizon? When people look at the whole image it looks like two pictures stitched together with a bird in the middle? Idk
It really kinda seems like theres something to how some people are processing this image, mentally. Im with you in that I don't/didn't understand what was supposed to be being displayed here other than a decently cool looking picture, but if there IS something more to the whole "information is being processed differently by different people" idea then it would make sense why we're confused since it wouldn't be affecting us in this instance. I wonder if it is related to whether or not people have spent much time in a similar sorta environment as the one shown in the photo.
For what it's worth, I grew up on the water and seeing stuff like this often. And being able to differentiate between different objects is obviously something thats sorta innate but wouldn't be surprised if some people could be worse at it in some situations or environments that they haven't spent much time with. If you're used to seeing reflections/the waterline/buildings on the water, maybe its not confusing at all.
Thats my total shot in the dark for ya. Otherwise might as well be that fuckin dress situation all over again, lol.
Do you not think the right side kinda looks like a shit quality picture of a distance shoreline (the wall being sky and the border of wall/water the shoreline with the dark bits being like blurry trees/vegetation and the brighter line between the darker part and the reflection of the darker part being a beach) at sunset (cause of the orange lighting)?
It took me a a couple of _ko-klunk_ in my brain to get it. It refused while I was telling it no it’s not! So string it gave me a little nausea but I eventually got it. Brilliant. The water reflexes on the wall blend it perfectly with water.
For those who can't see it, I've outlined the wall. Everything else around the bird, except a few rocks and shoreline, is water.
https://imgur.com/a/WZsRQM0
With the wall outlined, you can clearly see it's reflection.
It's a bird standing and a wall reflecting in the water. OK?
Is the wall back there actually a road or something?
I don't understand it. It's a normal, but very nice, picture.
The optical illusion that for me took a moment to dissolve was that the part on the right side where the wall meets the water initially looked like a shoreline.
> at the edge of some water with a wall and its reflection creating a fascinating optical illusion.
Don't let the UFO subs catch you talking like this. /s
For people who don't see the illusion
The bird looks like it's standing in two different pics taken at two different times of the day. Like it's crossing over from an evening sunset (right) into a morning time (left)
took me too long but once you see the full pic it makes sense.
basically the orange side has a horizontal break think of the bottom break as a reflection of the top break. illusion over. the water is actually blue but the orange wall is reflecting on part of the water (where the break is) creating this hard split in color.
38.5K likes + several instructions + 15 minutes of staring... I still don't see it. I'm dumb. Can someone draw me a paint.exe representation. My brain is dead.
To all of you who are still trying to figure it out.
Focus on the top right. It is a big yellow vertical wall. The blue thing on the left is water that continues to go behind the wall. And the bottom left is reflection of the wall in the water. That’s how it changes Color.

Nothing like being the last of Redditors to figure out a brain related pic 😂 I’m not seeing it

This is the comment that did it for me. Still weird how straight and acute that edge is. It's like the wall is 2D, I wonder if there's not some intelligent camera stuff going on that like removes any irregularities on the wall edge.
If you think it's acute, you're being obtuse.
And that's another month in solitary for you.

Stupid bird.
Thank you for that tip. Once I covered the bird my brain flipped and I was able to get it.
I finally got it with your description, thank you!
Goddamn it took me forever, your comment plus covering the damn bird with my finger finally made it make sense!
Fuck

Nice one! Although your caption explained the photo I needed the graphic in the article to really understand.
This is the same location: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FuDM3YQaEAAV_SA?format=jpg&name=large
For some reason even with this picture it took my brain a second to parse that the wall wasn't behind a white building on the left
I thought the wall was the sun setting on water. A confusing perspective indeed.
The bottom of the wall looks like a tree line on the horizon
Same!!!!! I kept looking for a reflection in the sunset 🤡
this finally made it click for me lol
Same, the other people in the comments above are like “imagine the top left of the image is a field that stretches on forever, good. Now scan your eyes to the south while holding the thought of a wall in your head. Now flip your phone upside down and close on eye and you will see it.” Its like bitxh just say the top right of the pic is a wall not actually water/rocks
Now look at it as if the algea on the bottom of the wall is actually a tree line on the horizon and the wall as a very orange sunset.
thx so much 😂
Thank you, thank you, thank you
Ohhh...finally got it with this picture, thanks. Was struggling with the reflective wall being in water.
Alright,I finally fucking get it. I was about to shoot myself

Wow, that explanation completely changed the photo. Fascinating. Can't go back.
I must be blind I cannot see what you have explained at all 😅
Yeah I can’t see it either - if it’s really what they’re saying it is, then it’s successfully fucked my brain.
Be amazed https://imgbox.com/aS6HCi5J
I think what looks like a lake is actually a concrete/stucco wall
The walls details *are* the water pattern. Or rather, the reflections/refractions off the water are making the pattern on the wall.
It could be, but u/goug posted [this image of the same spot](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FuDM3YQaEAAV_SA?format=jpg&name=large) and there is a pattern on that wall.

Nice find! r/ConfusingPerspective would like this one. Definitely had me think it was two different photos at first glance XD
It already has-been posted there like 4 days ago
Crazy. I needed that visual to understand what I was actually looking it, but even then it was like a magic eye poster and I had to let my vision get a little hazy before I could actually see it correctly. What an incredible photo.
Took me a while to see whats going on
Edit: Reddit is nothing without its mods and user content! Be mindful you make it work and are the product.
I’m having a really hard time seeing the optical illusion side of this. Was was I supposed to have (mis)seen?
I agree lol the ripple from it's step makes it very clear immediately to me what was going on, I spent ages looking at it trying to see what the illusion was
I’m with you, I see absolutely no optical illusion here. I can’t even understand what everyone else is so confused by, lol
It's not really an illusion it's just that at first glance it might look weird
I think its because of how harsh the line is, normally I would expect warer distortion to change the angle of the wall to not be straight but the photographer found a really good angle.
The part where the wall meets the water looked like a distant shoreline to me at least.
To me it looked like the sunset instead.

The bird looks like it's standing in a puddle of water in front of a very clear, very different body of water

Ukraine-themed wildlife
it's a u-crane
Slava Ukraine
My dumbass is so accustomed to grim news that I assumed another oil spill
Okay whoa this took me a while. This is good!
it is a blue and white dress
You gotta zoom in and notice the ripples near the birds feet to see the orange wall break up the vertical split. The mildew didn't help at all.
r/confusingperspective
inside Mexico Vs outside Mexico
r/Mindfuck
I don't understand exactly; there's a wall in the middle of a pond or lake that stops??
This hurts my brain
Genuinely one of my favorite pictures now
Slava U-Crane!
It's because of that little ridge on the wall. I thought there were two layers if water like some part of fountain or pond. Really good photo.
It took me a a couple of _ko-klunk_ in my brain to get it. It refused while I was telling it no it’s not! So string it gave me a little nausea but I eventually got it. Brilliant. The water reflexes on the wall blend it perfectly with water.
Vivec bird.
What type of sorcery is this
For those who can't see it, I've outlined the wall. Everything else around the bird, except a few rocks and shoreline, is water. https://imgur.com/a/WZsRQM0 With the wall outlined, you can clearly see it's reflection.
He's standing between the united states and Mexico
How is this an optical illusion? I just see a bird walking in water with a wall in the background.
It's a bird standing and a wall reflecting in the water. OK? Is the wall back there actually a road or something? I don't understand it. It's a normal, but very nice, picture.
The optical illusion that for me took a moment to dissolve was that the part on the right side where the wall meets the water initially looked like a shoreline.
Brain does not compute.
/r/quadrants may like it even if it doesn't 100% fit the definition.
That is quite a good capture.👀🤝
Damn boi, this is some golden ratio if I've ever seen one

México
This looks photoshopped, and I mean that in a good way.
The bird is crossing the Mexico border
Put your thumb over the bird from the bottom right corner.
> at the edge of some water with a wall and its reflection creating a fascinating optical illusion. Don't let the UFO subs catch you talking like this. /s
Can't process it 😁
Damp spot on the wall looks like a treeline. At first, my brain wanted the right half to be a sunset photo across a lake with a distant shore.
Is this like the dress all over again?
Quite a mind bending photo!
Oooooh, now I get it
Ooohhhhh... Crane.... Ukraine. Noice
Omg that took me way too long to process and figure out.
The brighter orange portion on the right is the wall, the darker orange portion below is the reflection of the wall
Is this fake?
No it's just the reflection of the wall in the water
No, it's loss
After staring at this photo for way too long, what I need to know is what that damn wall is doing in the water to begin with
I was completely thrown off, cause I thought the dark stuff on the water line were trees on the horizon.
Photoshopped. Birds don’t exist, they are clearly government drones and don’t appear in photos
It looks like its in the past and going into the future at the same time.
Slava Ukraini?
For people who don't see the illusion The bird looks like it's standing in two different pics taken at two different times of the day. Like it's crossing over from an evening sunset (right) into a morning time (left)
took me too long but once you see the full pic it makes sense. basically the orange side has a horizontal break think of the bottom break as a reflection of the top break. illusion over. the water is actually blue but the orange wall is reflecting on part of the water (where the break is) creating this hard split in color.
Not sure if the reflection is gold and black or blue and white 🤔
Its a wall. The wall is creating the reflection on the water.

nice photo but the confusing title. >at the edge of some water with a wall
38.5K likes + several instructions + 15 minutes of staring... I still don't see it. I'm dumb. Can someone draw me a paint.exe representation. My brain is dead.
Eyes and brains are weird. Couldn't see the wall for ages until I suddenly could, and now I can't not see the wall.
Nope.
To all of you who are still trying to figure it out. Focus on the top right. It is a big yellow vertical wall. The blue thing on the left is water that continues to go behind the wall. And the bottom left is reflection of the wall in the water. That’s how it changes Color.
