    They all look right side up to me, I’m pretty sure the shadows make it so it can’t look upside down, I can’t get it even to appear that way at all. I’m curious OP, with the famous dress, did you see black and blue or white and gold?

        Interesting. I have never once seen the white/gold in the original photo, only blue/black.

        I only ask because both that illusion and this one work only if people misinterpret the lighting. I’m curious to see if other people here have the same correlation

          I swear I read somewhere that the dress color was more a function of whatever device you were viewing it on. Depending on how the display settings and capability of the screen along with any other factors like polarization, etc.

            That could definitely play a part, but when it was going around I saw it on a bunch of android phones, iphones, and on my computer, and I could never see white and gold. Also, I could see the blue and black on the same device as a friend who saw white and gold

            Nah I’ve seen it on so many devices, even loaded it in a photo editor once and messed with the contrast/brightness for a bit. It’s always yellow and gold to me.

      Yeah I can kinda force it to look upside down if I try to like unfocus but they appeared face up from the get go for me except maybe the top middle one?

      Edit: interestingly when I saw the smaller preview image upon sending this to my partner then I could see it upside down.
