Mehendi for Eid

Mehendi: A traditional form of body painting in palm, arm and also feet using a natural dye made from the paste of leaves of the Henna / Mehndi plant., a dwarf shrub. In urban areas cones are commercially available for use as opposed to applying it with sticks, which make designs more detailed and intricate.

I L L U S I O N... !!

Got it from web, want to share with others.

The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honours the servant and has forgotten the gift." - A. Einstein.

This has to be one of the best illusion ever created.

If you look at the above images from your seat in front of the computer, Mr. Angry is on the left, and Ms. Calm is on the right.

Get up from your seat, and move back 12 feet, and PRESTO!! they switch places!!

Does this prove that we sometimes may not be seeing what's actually there?

It is said this illusion was created by Phillippe G. Schyns and Aude Oliva of the University of Glasgow.
