This picture is in black and white!
« on: July 31, 2019, 12:45:21 am »
Some only see a grey-scale picture with colored lines across it.

I see full color with colored lines until I look closely, between the lines.

All grey-scale.

A mind-boggling optical illusion has divided the internet after a picture that appears to be in color was revealed to be a black-and-white shot.

The photograph shows a group of young girls wearing seemingly different-colored T-shirts as they smile for the camera with a tortoise.

Unfortunately my outline.com app wont work with that linked site so you get a bunch of 'drop down' crappola if you go there.

(That is why I put the photo in my post.)

That's very cool.

Oh, and you're a racist.
My avatar shows the national debt in stacks of $100 bills.  If you look very closely under the crane you can see the Statue of Liberty.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I see the color,and I see the grid of different colors. I see no gray scale at all.

I saw this on Bookface.  I'd like to see the original B&W picture.

Squint a mite and look at the ballast between the railroad tracks they are on. That's where I see it easiest. It's hardest to get the blues and greens and red to resolve to gray, but the yellow shirt is easier.

If you zoom the photo much larger it is easy to see that it's a B&W photo overlaid with a many colored grid.

I couldn't find the original black and white of that image but here is another example from the same person.

The web page link is below.
