It reminds me of the seventies and eighties.

Cool! I love looking at those. I also like the type of pictures where you stare for ages and then the hidden picture behind pops out at you.

Apparently, the oldest optical illusion ever is the Mona Lisa painting. If you just gaze at her face she is barely smiling but once you focus on her eyes there she is beaming back at you. Give it a try!

I stared, I put my glasses on, I took my glasses off, I squinted, I backed far off, I got close up ... nothing happened, except that I noticed the VWs seem to have a wheel missing. I want my 60 seconds back!
