    Steve,

    It initially looked like an eye, but when the picture kicked in, there was more to it.

    Maybe you have seen what few people do !!!

    Many of these 3D pictures can be viewed such that the brain can "see" 2 different but quite similar images.

    This is one of them.

    However it's often very difficult to get the brain to "forget" the first 3D image in order that the second can be recognised. Even having done it many times I still have occasions where it will just not switch. If this is the case you just have to forget about it and come back a while later.

    Also I believe that 1 of the images is "more dominant" (more easily seen) than the other and this is the one that most people see first when they make a 3D recognition.

    For this particular "picture"

    1 image is an "eye shape" with a central "pupil" that is circular with a round "hole" in the middle.
    The "eye" and the "pupil" both "stick out" towards you with the whole thing sort of recessed with fairly shallow sloping sides going away from you.

    The other image also has the outer eye shape but there is another slightly smaller eye shape inside it and recessed back. Instead of a round "pupil" in the middle this image has an elongated (horizontally) flattened version with more of a "slot" in it. Additionally there is a vertical "loop" across the centre sticking out towards you. The whole image is recessed as per the first image, however, the sloping sides are much steeper.

    I hope others can see both images.
    I have read somewhere that it is considered very healthy to exercise your brain in this manner - almost like taking it to the gym !

    i sent a pic a few days ago and have still not received a reply, despite chasing them. Anyone had similar problems?

    I used to have free software on my Amiga that could do this, I'm pretty sure there's similar software out there for the PC for free.
