No matter how much I look at this I can't see it for what it is. Have you seen this one? The "blue" and "green" are exactly the same colour and it's obvious how it works but I still see two colours.

The blue and green are the same color? No way. Can't be. Now my head hurts.

Yeah, take it over to photoshop to check! Obviously the illusion is in what colour they're compared to, with a more contrasting pink and with more of an orange colour, to bring out the blue and green respectively in that colour. Even when I zoom in on it and can see the contrasting colours trying to distract me, I still just see green and blue. Pretty cool but annoying illusion.

Yeah, that's pretty crazy. I can't even separate everything visually (maybe if I zoomed in or whatever). I definitely perceive two different colors but I can understand how it could be just one.

Very cool! Had to open it up in Photoshop, like you said.Thanks for posting it!

I love these little mind tricks. Not everything is what it appears to be!

I used my fingers to check that both were the same hue. Low-tech.
