It's crazy that once you see them, they all pop out. I'm able to easily switch back and forth between perspectives. Neato!

I think this is why people that find four leaf clovers find tons of four leaf clovers. I asked my cousin how he does it so well years ago and he said, they look different I’m not sure how else to describe it, they kinda pop out at you. About a month ago I found my first one and now I’ve found almost twenty.
Or maybe it's because you become lucky after finding the first one!
I definitely feel luckier, like now when I drive I don’t feel that burden to wait until a stop light to check my phone or look up every once in a while to make sure there’s no trees or headlights coming at me with their bad luck vibe/s
Interesting how noticing just one makes all of them pop out
The key is
click to reveal spoiler
looking at the vertical lines only, which becomes easier once you notice that they form a pattern
No idea what everyone is talking about. I don't see any circles. Is this just one of those "lets see how long these dumbasses will stare at a screen" jokes?
Damn that just blew my mind! I could not see them
Thanks man.
Shit-stained balls!
Now these are useful red circles! Thanks fam!
Nope, it's real. You gotta unfocus your eyes a bit, but the circles are made of the vertical lines in between the horizontal ones.
Hehehe. Good one
if you are having trouble, use the Magic Eye trick where you hold it closer to your face and slowly pull it away
I just want to say that this is not one the those magic eye thingies. This advice isn't helpful here. What does help is telling people that the circles are between those rectangles.
Very helpful
Or looking from an acute angle
click to reveal spoiler
from the top or bottom so that the irrelevant horizontal lines blend together
At first I didn't see them, but then I let my eyes relax a bit then bam! They jumped out at me and more I can't unsee them lol
I know circles and discs are used as synonyms, but I was just looking for the actual curve, or circumference. But if I was looking for discs, then I think I would have spotted them quicker.

The even crazier thing is that you can unsee it once you've seen it. Wild!
Nope....nothing
Unfocuse your eyes a bit, look at the intersections of two boxes, and blink.
The circles are the beveled edges of what your brain keeps telling you are raised trapezoids
Oh dang. That worked
it might help to focus on the center on the image for a while. Don't concentrate too much, just wait for your brain to recognize the shapes.
This is what helped me see it. Thanks!
Glad it worked for you!

Oh look, a schooner!
It's not a Schooner! It's a sailboat.
A schooner is a sailboat, stupid head!
I wouldn't really call them circles. very jaggered arcs.
This is the word play that makes this a trick. When we look for circles we automatically look for a curved line. Why wouldn't we? But these shapes aren't circles.
Can someone point them out? Maybe circle them.
Look between the squares and focus your eyes
I noticed the circles before noticing the other structure, at first I tought this is the notintreresting page
I'm the other way, even when I did finally see them it was a strain to keep seeing them, the circles keep disappearing back into rectangle sides unless I give myself a headache trying to focus on the circles..
Pro-tip. Get your mind to focus in the verticle lines.
Vertical* lines.
Ventricle*
Vestigial*
Thank you. This finally worked for me
Took me about 2 seconds but the effect is still really impressive!
It took me about 30 seconds before giving up and looking for clues in the comments to help my dumbass out but the effect is still really impressive!
The only thing I see here is eye strain.
I'm one of them
I'm not familiar with this one, but I guess we're more biased towards processing stimuli as 3D over 2D, as we live in a 3D environment?
I mean, anytime I stop focusing on the discs, I default to the embossed squares. But maybe this is different for others?
