Here is one optical illusion and a description of it. I asked a question about how it works the other day and received a few really good answers. I even found out that Mahalo has a super optical illusions page which might be helpful to you as well. There is a good description of this illusion right on the picture itself.

@alwaysright gave the most descriptive answer that will most likely be of the most help. I was really impressed by this whole optical illusion and how it tricks our eyes into seeing something that just is not there.

alwaysright's answer

**One user @michelleldevon had said that her eyes were not tricked by this illusion and the picture remained black and white the whole time (well went from the bluess right to the black and white). I guess it won't work for all eyes.
