[QUOTE="Peter7100, post: 770172, member: 48633"] Although I can see how that can be viewed as an optical illusion, I found that my eye went straight to look for what appears to be a faint horizon water line. I then assumed maybe the water was very still further out rather than it being the fog causing the effect. I think we can see things differently on occasions which can result in many interpretations. It is particulary noticeable when people see faces in all sorts of places eg. clouds, food etc. Of course the latter is easily explained as our brains looks at so many faces throughout a lifetime that it is constantly alert to recognise any given face at any time. The downside of seeing things differently is that I might think my photo's look good when everyone else thinks they are terrible ;) [/QUOTE]
