In the image provided by Jagran Josh, we can see a grainy vintage image of a picturesque valley.
An attractive landscape is immediately apparent, where a steep hill with houses and people going about their daily lives takes center stage.
A large tree can also be seen on the right side of the image, while a set of stairs can be seen in the lower center.
However, somewhere inside, a man’s face can be found.
Hiding in plain sight, it waits for you to find it – but also does its best to remain undetected.
This will certainly not be an easy feat and you will have to put all your skills to the test to succeed.
Everyone can see the lines of football players – but you have a high IQ and 20/20 vision if you can spot the referee’s whistle in 30 seconds
But if you can really focus on the task at hand and check every square inch of the image, then you should be able to find the hidden face.
Be sure to think outside the box, because this is not as simple as it seems.
So, without further ado, go – and good luck.
However, if you are struggling, we can offer you one clue to help you succeed; try to look at the picture from a different angle!
If you still can’t find it, the answer is circled for you below.
How do illusions work?
By Tom Malley
OPTICAL illusions are a great way to test your vision and cognitive abilities, requiring you to really think and observe what’s in front of you.
More often than not, players have to find something hidden within the image that cannot be immediately found at first glance.
But the more you stare at it, the more your brain tries to help you find the answer.
What you see and what you think you see are two completely different things, but your senses collect information and send it to your brain.
Your brain then creates a perception with this information, filling in the gaps when there is incomplete information or creating an image that is not there at all.
This reaction is actually a survival instinct.
Our brains have evolved to work quickly to piece together all the information they can get, before doing their best to figure out the rest.
So when you look at an optical illusion, your brain works with what it has to develop reality to help you see the answer in the image.
