Here we have another well known double meaning black and white optical illusion. In the black part of this image you can see a musician playing what looks like a saxophone while facing right. On the white part it is showing the face of a young woman who appears to be looking straight back at you. Which do you think is the most prominent silhouette showing in this picture? The black saxophone player or the white face of a young woman?

This is an 1872 coloured print created by Currier and Ives entitled "The Puzzled Fox". In this picture there are a number of hidden animals, birds, and men's and women's faces. How many can you see?

If you stare at this image of a black light bulb for about 30 seconds and then look at something white, you will be able to see the bulb glowing.
