Nope. Guess again. smile.gif

Our eyes create the leaning effect. The pictures really are identacle.

The one on the right is just a copy of the one of the left.

I cheated and looked it up.

The leaning tower illusion is one of the simplest visual tricks ever discovered, but it is also one of the most profound contributions to our understanding of depth perception. Three years ago Frederick Kingdom, Ali Yoonessi and Elena Gheorghiu of McGill University noticed that two identical side-by-side images of the Leaning Tower of Pisa appeared to lean at different angles. Because the two towers do not converge as they recede into the distance, the brain mistakenly perceives them as nonparallel and diverging.

Man is made by his belief. As he believes, so he is.
