I only have 3 meters from my monitor to the wall. Resizing did the same thing.
So does taking off your glasses.

Wow, that is freaky, did it turn into Marylin Monroe? Did I see it right?
Put that as your wallpaper for your PC at work if your cubicle and monitor are in a position that passerbys or people approaching can see it from afar.

Yep it's Maralyn Monroe =) I have to step back into my bathroom 20 feet away before the edges of his nose and jaw fade away enough not to see.
DK if you have that limited space dont' blow it up, shrink it, not sure if you'll see it at that distance still though especially if you have good vision.
Here's the link to the article, I forgot to post it with the original image.

Yep, 2 to 3 feet away after putting on my non prescription cheap dollar store magnifiers the picture definatly change to a (blurry) Maralyn Monroe.
At twenty feet it might still be a little fuzzy for me using the naked eye.

I had to resize it to see. Not enough room to backup.

The image, as a thumbnail, is enough to 'ruin' the illusion.
I suspected it to be MM before I even finished reading the first post. Somehow, at a mere 20 inches from my monitor, I could tell. The glow around his head was the give-away. Speaking of optical illusions, I think this one is the greatest. I guarantee you that noticing the boat is secondary.

Don't make me reach through this monitor to slap you a good one!
Pretty cool!
This is one of my favorites! And it can answer your question too!

I've seen this many times and I didn't notice till now she has dark hairy arm pits.I suspected it to be MM before I even finished reading the first post.

She has arms? Wow, never noticed that before...

I think it's more of shadowing than hair. I have real doubts that she follows after French women! BTW, notice how the boaters in the background all have smiles on their faces... even the female in the boat seems to be happy about something. Perhaps the optical illusion they see is the same in reverse... "after a few seconds you can see a photographer in the background".
