Here is a very interesting and recently viral optical illusion that will leave you surprised. It is a stunning picture clicked and posted on Facebook by Villager Jim. The photo is that of a horse against the stunning backdrop of a sunrise, clicked near Chesterfield, Derbyshire, England.
In the picture, the horse is lined up perfectly with the glorious sunrise. After clicking the picture, Jim realized he had created an optical illusion as due to the bright light silhouetting the horse's head, it can be hard to determine whether the horse is facing towards the camera or away.
"You become more unsure of your answer the longer that you look at it," Mirror UK quoted Jim, who didn't want to reveal his real name.
To trick netizens with this new optical illusion, Jim posted the picture on Facebook and wrote, "What a stunning sunrise this morning, the question is though is the horse looking towards me or away?
Netizens were amazed and divided over the correct answer.
One user commented, "Beautiful. One minute horse is looking towards the sunrise, look again and it's looking towards the camera, awesome."
Another wrote, "That's difficult. I first thought away but now I'm not so sure."
Another said: "Wow that's amazing it could be either. I think away but very had to tell."
