Square illusion - vertical lines appear longer
Square illusion. The shape on the right hand side is a square whilst the one on the left, which is slightly shorter, is not. However many people believe it to be the other way round. This is because humans view vertical lines as being longer than horizontal ones and our perception of shapes is affected accordingly

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Square illusion - vertical lines appear longer" showcases a fascinating optical trick that challenges our perception of length and shapes. The image features two squares, one on the right-hand side and another slightly shorter square on the left. Surprisingly, many people mistakenly believe that the shorter square is actually longer. The reason behind this intriguing phenomenon lies in how humans perceive visual stimuli. Our brains tend to view vertical lines as being longer than horizontal ones, influencing our interpretation of shapes accordingly. This illusory effect can be attributed to both psychology and neuroscience. The ambiguity created by this visual trickery highlights the complexity of human vision and its susceptibility to illusions. It serves as a reminder that what we see may not always accurately reflect reality. This panoramic photograph captures the essence of this optical illusion with precision, allowing viewers to marvel at the deceptive nature of our perception. Whether you are interested in visual tricks or simply intrigued by neuroscience, this thought-provoking image from Science Photo Library is sure to captivate your imagination without fail.
