People In This Group Are Sharing 50 Seriously Confusing Pics That Need To Be Looked At Twice To Understand
What’s interesting about the term perspective is how it can mean some very different things. One, according to the Merriam Webster dictionary, defines “a visible scene, especially: one giving a distinctive impression of distance.” Its other use applies to “a mental view or prospect,” or its third use stands for the interrelation of things that are mentally viewed.
So in this case, we’re gonna look at the peculiar cases that challenge the perspective and make it all just very confusing. Welcome to the subreddit Confusing Perspectives, which is a place “for puzzling perspectives, confusing angles, and missing context.”
With a whopping 1.3 million members, the community is a real powerhouse for mind-bender content that makes you look twice, thrice, and wonder if everything’s right.

Perspective is a beautiful thing. Not only does it refer to our state of mind, it also applies to photography. And since they represent a viewpoint from which things are seen in a particular way, both can be altered.
For the photographer, perspective is a summation of the relationship between objects in a photograph. The photograph is a two-dimensional representation of that three-dimensional world. So when we look at a photograph, we figure out spatial relationships by looking at the objects in the frame. Thanks to the camera, we are able to see a transition of a 3D scene that it captures to a 2D scene, which is its automatic and basic function.
But sometimes anomalies happen and the viewers encounter perspective distortion. It is a warping or transformation of an object and its surrounding area that differs significantly from what the object would look like with a normal focal length, due to the relative scale of nearby and distant features.

And when it comes to the perspectives we have in mind, they are something fundamentally unique to every person. It’s our interpretation of information gathered through our senses of sight, sound, smell, taste and touch. This is woven together to form a picture that is then tinted and shaded by society, culture, education, family beliefs, and the media as well as our individual ‘evidence’ gained throughout life.
This is the reason why family members, husbands and wives, and best friends can interpret the same situation totally differently. Moreover, some of our perceptions are heavily influenced by assumptions which may or may not be correct. This is why we’re often burdened by feelings of negativity, anxiety, and frustration.
The good news is that changing perspective, your own interpretation of reality, is what will make you move forward past the challenges.

That's a weirdly masculine hand. Also, the rest of her body isn't positioned correctly for that to be happening and unless she's a contortionist and her arms are extremely long, I don't see this as possible.
I can do this with my left arm no problem (thanks, scoliosis!). And what kind of comment is that about a masculine hand?

No, its not. The thumb of the right arm points to the left shoulder, if you put your right hand on your back like that.

It is. I can do that, although only with my left arm.

No way a person's right hand can be swiveled around to end up in that position.
That's Wednesday from the Adams family all grown up and she brought Thing with her.
But that's not what your arm looks like if you scratch your back. This is definitely someone else's arm or Photoshop.
years of practice of clasping and unclasping the bra from the back can do this. It's a handy thing to have to hide something behind your back.
Took a long time to realize that there is a guy sitting on the right chair, in front of her and his hand his on her back.
Nope not buyin it. Looks like a man hand and unless she has 3 arms that is near impossible to pull off. I ask everyone to try it.......
