No Delusion, No Collusion, It's Just An Illusion
Photograph copyright: DAVID McMAHON
This picture of a Melbourne office building in the new Docklands precinct was actually shot through the window of a moving train. Rub your eyes and take a second look. The black and white segments are actually the same size and the horizontal orange lines are all actually parallel to the horizon. Don't believe me? Have a look at the side of the building, on the right of the frame - and you'll see what I mean.
FOOTNOTE: It's all there in black and white.

I'm train-sick, now, I think.
what in the world is THAT!
That's amazing. And you got that from a moving train? Cool.
wow,
Deceptive.....
Wow...talk about an illusion! I wonder what kind of an employer has that sort of a building!
Great shot of the place, especially through a moving train!
i like it! otherwise it would be just another boring box of an office building. very cool!
Cool - OP ART! (Optical Illusion)
I deleted my previous post because I needed to retype it.
That's made my eyes go wonky. I don't think Prince Charles would approve of such architecture!
Neat! All of a sudden I have this strange desire to put a puzzle together.
And no confusion to make this inclusion for a nice conclusion!
Your title is a mini poem and I've taken the liberty to add more to it. ;)
What a geat picture, and such a clever marketing ploy.
Clever picture David, didn't do my vari-focals any good! LOL!
Hope you manage to visit my poetry day today!

That is a sweet building design! Now all they need are two antennae on top of the building....one with arrowheads pointing outward, one with them pointing inwards, so that you can try to figure which looks longer :)
fabulous building!! wow! thx david!
k:))
Weird and crazy. I wish I could see it up close!
Fascinating. A very creative use of optical illusions. I bet it looks perfectly normal after a dozen pints.
My eyes hurt!
sort of like drawing mountains on a flat surface.. groovie pick David.
Peace, Kai.
That is totally cool. Great picture! I would love to see that in person.
Another graphic example of why we get confused and see things differently.
OK, that's wiggin' me out!
