Definately a photoshop, although at first, I thought the illusion was with the mast the picture was taken from.

Lol! Wow. It took me a few minutes of staring wondering what the big deal was to get it. I feel dumb :(

Just when you thought it was safe to take a Photo. :D

I think they went a bit overboard on the size though.

I think that's one of the goals of the picture... With that guy lying there, we instinctively notice the height, and our brain immediately tries to measure the range from the photo-point to the man. It takes some time indeed for us to notice the shark, most likely after our brain coming to a conclusion about the photo...

I said it's a goal of the picture. Doesn't mean it works 100% on everyone. It did work, however, with a majority of the posters, so my previous post stands correct :roll: :lol:

I noticed the shark immediately but what the hell is that in the top right corner? I thought it was someone "flipping the bird" but I am not so sure.

Ay.

It's not an "optical illusion". It's a "barely noticeable image".

AY.



And the jaws are too big to make the shark a megalodon. So it's an incorrect photoshop. :)
