Can You See The Lions? :)

The key is to try & focus your eyes "past" your computer screen to see this! I find the best thing to do is to simply blur your eyes... It takes several seconds...
For years I used to hate these 3D art posters because I was always one of those people who could NEVER see the image! It took me years to get the knack of focusing properly...
For those of you who hate these things, sorry!!!

But try it if you can. Give yourself a few seconds. You should see a papa lion, a mama lion, and a little lion cub.

I could get a 3-D image to emerge with several cut-outs in it, but the only lions I saw were the plural lion heads along the middle row.

Donna, you almost had it! Just give yourself a few more seconds. That's exactly how it appears to me. At first I saw two mama lion heads, then I just saw the one mama lion. In fact I still do when I try to refocus.
Sweet, keep trying hon... I'm sure you'll see it after a few more tries.
Sorry girls...

It took me several years to master this whole #D poster thing. I used to get so peeved because I coudn't see it. Some people can see it almost immediately. Then others like myself take a few years to get the hang of it.
Just DO NOT focus your eyes the way you normally would. Don't focus on the screen as if you're looking at anything normal. Pretend that you're focusing your eyes at something a few inches past your monitor (the wall, whatever) And it does take several seconds... I know, easier said than done... sorry!!
These used to drive me nuts years ago! Sorry again, hee hee hee I am SO BAD...

Hi Lorna!!!

Got it. Pretty good one, and didn't take long. I've one in poster form of an falcon in a stoop (dive or strike) I like to drive my lil' sis crazy with!!

I think this is the first I've tried on a computer display.
Love Carolynn

Hi Lorna,
I saw them immediately.

Hi all,
Yeah, I saw them too, Lorna. Cool. I'm a fan of stereograms (I have a series of books called "Magic Eye" that have page after page of them). I was amazed at how clearly the lions stood out; like Carolynn, I'd never tried looking at one on a computer monitor. I'm surprised to see that even jiggling the cursor in front of the image doesn't destroy the illusion of depth.
Love,
CJ

No, I could only see a row of small lion heads, like Donna

You are bad Lorna, these used to drive me nuts too, I've never seen anything in a magic eye picture! I'm going to go back and give it another go.
Finally.......

Ok Lorna,
This is the third day I have been looking at the picture and I finally saw the three lions. I really love looking at these stereograms (?) and usually find them right away. I have not looked at them on my laptop before and so today I tried moving the screen closer to my eyes than I usually have it. Presto!! It showed up right away.
Thanks for providing a challenge to all of us.
XOXO Paige
