Optical Illusion Makes a Black-and-White Photo Look Colorful
There’s an optical illusion going viral right now where a black-and-white photo looks colorful . . . all because of a light grid of different colored squares over it. Basically our eyes color in the areas in between the squares, which makes the entire photo look like it’s in color.
This is a black and white photograph. Only the lines have colour.
