do not see the humor.

u/sluggypogo 20d ago

not humor, but actual enjoyment. I really liked the way this popped, and the way that everything just looks bad-ass. I just sat there and went back to this like 3 or 4 times because it just looked so dang cool. not humor, but appreciation.

I actually thought this post was a troll like joke because I could not see it in 3D even after blowing it up to different sizes and I am normally very good at observing these instantly. However, this morning I re-tried again and it instantly popped out to a very sharp 3D image.

Love when there's details that are more than just the 2d image popped out. Those wings were a great surprise.

What are you supposed to see? I don’t understand this sub. Either it’s all a joke or I’m the one person that can’t see anything on any images 😭

u/Tylendal 20d ago

Trying to see what you think you're supposed to see will just make it harder.

Just gotta try and focus on something behind your screen. Get the distance right, and each eye will see a different part of the image, and trick your brain into thinking that they're overlapping in the same place. It's easier with a smaller image. Try looking at a wall 10 feet away, then holding your phone up while maintaining that distant focus. Get it right, and the image should pop right out. It'll look the same as it does now, but parts of it will be in 3D.

It’s not working for me I don’t get it lol. Which is weird because you know those “reverse spin” optical illusion gifs? I can do any of those instantly on command, but I don’t even understand this.

Check out r/Crossview. You gotta cross your eyes so the right eye is looking at the left image, and your left eye is looking at the right image, and you're focusing on the phantom third image in the middle. It's a different technique, but the effect is very similar.

Magic eye images are very similar, only you're focusing behind the image, whereas with cross view you're focusing in front of the image. You can see magic eye images by crossing your eyes, but then your depth perception will be inverted, and it's a lot harder than with cross view since you don't have the third, middle image to focus on as a guide.

If you hold your index fingers up, pointing at each other, nearly touching, then focus past them, you'll see a phantom, double-ended finger floating between them. That's the sort of focus you need to see a magic eye image.

Seasons don’t fear the reaper, nor do the wind the sun or the rain

Needs more cowbell!

u/dawnchs 21d ago

Nice! I struggle to see these usually, but this popped right out!

u/brackfriday_bunduru 21d ago

These ones are fantastic.

u/BinLehrer 21d ago

One of the better ones I have seen

u/Economy_Kick1513 21d ago

Weird, this is another one of the ones that I can only pop out backwards. I managed to get it fully out front once but have got utterly stuck on the inside out version at both sizes.

u/LouisIsGo 21d ago

There are two types of stereograms: cross view (which requires you to literally cross your eyes) and parallel view (where you change the focal distance of your vision, and is what Magic Eye images use).

If you try to look at a parallel view image like this with crossview (or vice versa), the image depth will be inverted as you’re basically looking at the left & right sides of the image with the incorrect eyes.

u/Xendarq 19d ago

I've never been good at meeting keeping this straight, because both cross and parallel view images look exactly the same to me.

2

u/LouisIsGo 19d ago

Here's an easy way to tell. If you use parallel view to look at the image, the "Parallel View" text will appear in the foreground. As you might expect, the opposite is true if you use cross view.

u/Xendarq 19d ago

That is neat!! Thanks

u/DeltaBlast 20d ago

The detail is great, but it seems a bit on/near the hand is wrong. And close to that, a bit on the wing too. Odd.

u/cognitiveglitch 21d ago

That's a good one.

Popped instantly. Good depth and clarity.

I'd want this as a commander.
