Is it a Floating Chair?

Want to throw students with a curveball? Check out this photo of a standard classroom wooden chair. Is it hanging, or is it on the floor? From the looks of the chair, it seems as though the chair is hanging on the ledge of a whiteboard in a classroom. However, one could argue that the chair is merely on the floor with two types of flooring, and that ledge is just on the wall.

Music at the Beach

Who doesn’t love a beach party – especially one with live music? Thanks to New Zealand artist Jamie Harkins, this optical illusion looks as though there is a piano at the beach – made of sand! This photo looks as though he’s playing the piano; however, look closely, and this isn’t a 3D photo but a 2D sand art drawing. Harkins travels the world, creating these sand art illusions with tourists and locals enjoying a pose here and there.
