This night-time ocean landscape is not what it might seem

Perspective plays a massive part in how our brains judge what we’re seeing – a change of lighting can make all the difference, as can the angle we’re viewing from, or the distance. Twitter user, Nayem, has shared this shot of what looks like a stunning ocean view, with the night sky and the rolling waters clearly visible.

All it needs is a bit of moonlight to be perfect. Except, that’s not what it is at all.

A few people were surprised to discover they were artists.

When it was posted to Reddit, a lot of people could only see it as an image of a beach, but AshMontgomery had a choice

Redditor itty153 explained something about how the post had been composed.

Wrong, itty153 – we’re simply artists.
