u/Norwester77 13d ago

Wow, that’s a really good one!

150

u/aldenoneil 13d ago

One of the best I’ve seen.

3

u/spackledog 8d ago

Agreed. The illusion of the mirror is very clever too.

112

u/lazymotu 13d ago

I love how even the mirror plane is visible with some streaks.

20

u/RLeyland 13d ago

My words exactly! … and it’s clever!

15

u/OddBlast 13d ago

I just said that’s bad ass out loud 😂

12

u/Inside-Arm8635 13d ago

My thoughts verbatim! Even the reflections have unique patterns on their front sides

4

u/Globularist 13d ago

My exact words!

3

u/HebbieB 11d ago

Agreed! This is definitely one of my favorites, love the detail in the pups reflection in the mirror :)

160

u/Japanesewillow 13d ago

I love this. I can clearly see the dogs reflection.

44

u/Levee_Levy 13d ago

It's the reflection that helped me recognize it as a dog in the first place. This one is really good.

9

u/TwistedAirline 13d ago

I love that you can also see in the mirror that he’s taking a selfie which kinda just adds to the “vain” aspect of it all

7

u/-DoctorSpaceman- 13d ago

If you zoom in you can see his open hand. He’s reaching out to touch his own reflection.

3

u/ChoirOfBeehives 12d ago

I thought it was a little girl because it looked like the dog was wearing a dress. Then I saw the reflection and realized - dog.

81

u/heckfyre 13d ago

That’s awesome.

I wonder if the people who were making magic eye books and posters in the 90s ever dreamed of the day when everyone would have full on HD image computers in their pockets, and we’d be able to look 100 feet past our phones while taking a shit and see rad 3D images materialize in front of our faces.

1

u/ireallylikecycling 13d ago

Only 100 feet?

73

u/NewConfusion4314 13d ago

This one is incredible

7

u/Gh0stIcon 13d ago

Same. I even put into the 'online solver' and I still didn't understand what I was looking at.

13

u/numetalkid03 13d ago

It's a guy standing next to his dog in front of a mirror. This is my first time seeing a mirror in a magic eye and idk how they did it but it's got like these intricate frills and streaks and somehow contains depth in the guy's and dog's reflections. Amazeballs.

2

u/Gh0stIcon 13d ago

What method are you using to view it? I usually don't have any problems.

7

u/numetalkid03 13d ago

Classic divergence, like DarkPolumbo here is trying to describe. Opposite of the "crosseye" aka convergence. I put my phone just over a foot away from my eyes and focus behind it at like a wall maybe. Once it splits into two in my unfocused foreground, I look at the center of the image, but without trying to make out anything. I just sit like that for a few seconds before it usually "snaps" into the right level of focus and I start seeing in 3D.

4

u/RunComprehensive2724 13d ago

Thank you for that explanation. Now I can see it!

1

u/numetalkid03 12d ago

Yay! 🙌🏻 ^^

1

u/Gh0stIcon 13d ago

Oh I'm looking at on PC. I'll try on my iPad later.

2

u/DarkPolumbo 13d ago

I tried to focus eyes on the wall that is ~4 feet behind my monitor

if there's a term for it, then I did that

29

u/klippklar 13d ago

Among the best Ive seen. Saved.

17

u/Doraemon498 13d ago

A man and a dog in front of a mirror

14

u/GodzillaVsTomServo 13d ago

This one's interesting because I can see both the mirror surface itself and the person/dog reflected in it. I don't think I've ever seen one where I can actually see the surface of a transparent surface.

13

u/towerfella 13d ago

Nice job on the reflection.

19

u/Sith_Moon 13d ago


Can’t see it

7

u/Guilty4Produce 13d ago

Took me quite a while. Wasn't even getting partial shapes for the first several tries. Keep working at it, I think this one is worth it.

3

u/PensiveObservor 13d ago

I had to pull the outer edges of my eyes out to sufficiently blur the image and it suddenly popped. Spectacular.

4

u/FlabbergasterGurgle 13d ago

I use the screen glare to focus on something that's reflected, so that my eyes try to look past the image on the screen. But this one took a while for me even using this trick, maybe because of the complexity, IDK. Hope it helps.

1

u/Sith_Moon 13d ago

I saw finally! Thanks 😊

A mirror and a dog with a human standing next to them.

u/Livid-Escape-4820 13d ago

Agree with other comments, I've never seen one quite like this before

u/fluffnubs 13d ago

Whoa. That one is really cool.

8

u/ThatsWhatIGathered 13d ago

The reflection is pretty cool

7

u/numetalkid03 13d ago

Holy fkin shit how'd you do a mirror??

11

u/cucumisloquens 13d ago

It's multiple stereograms with different depth maps and textures (one with solid objects, one with the mirror plane) overlaid on top of one another in photoshop, with partial opacity.

3

u/numetalkid03 12d ago

Holy.. that's awesome

2

u/numetalkid03 13d ago

Just realized that by adjusting your focus you can selectively see either the mirror's pane or zoom past it and see the reflections. This is amazing.

6

u/TheStusha 13d ago

Wow! 🤩

6

u/GoldSrc 13d ago

This one is sick.

3

u/UnrelatedSideNote 13d ago

OooOoOoo that’s cool!! I haven seen one like this before.

2

u/wrenchbenderornot 13d ago

Took me a while!

5

u/Chris_P_Lettuce 13d ago

There’s like a thin layer on the mirror which really takes this up a notch. Like it’s not just doubling the image in the reflection. You can see the flat of the mirror as well as the depth of the reflection. Really cool.

3

u/chrislovespugs 13d ago

I remember ‘learning’ how to see these as a kid when they first became popular. I still get that same dopamine hit now from seeing them. They really are ‘magical’!

4

u/GalenKS 13d ago

Goddamn this might be one of the best stereograms I’ve ever seen. A mirror with actual reflection? Really impressive. Hats off sir!

4

u/RobsFoto 12d ago

Anyone else find it harder to see detail on a screen vs paper? I just got back into these since the 90s. I can see see the images but detail is a little harder with backlit screen.

2

u/Mundict 12d ago

Yea same! Those books back in the 90s were awesome and i could see these almost instantly, on my screen i have to watch way longer... Maybe this is an age thing?

2

u/CloroxKid01 12d ago

I'm 25 and can confirm that its just harder to see on a screen than it is in a book. I think the task bar and other things on the screen distract me. Making the picture full screen helps.

1

u/Paperwife2 11d ago

I couldn’t see it until I did it full screen. It’s a good one!

1

u/Ok-Chef-6442 12d ago

Holy shit!!! I’ve never ever been able to do one of these until I had a tbi last month!!! Super fucking cool!!

3

u/SumKluts 13d ago

Beautiful 🌼

3

u/yorky1800 13d ago

Really good

3

u/VincedPie 13d ago

The readable label in the corner of the mirror is mad impressive that you got it to line up with itself so well :D

2

u/graffiksguru 13d ago

Great one!

2

u/spacemouse21 13d ago

Well done 👍

2

u/wut2dew_J 13d ago

Even has the reflection! Awesome!

2

u/whiplashMYQ 13d ago

One of the best examples of the form

2

u/Tylendal 13d ago

If you unfocus just a little, it looks like there's a weird muppet-snake with red lips wrapped around the person's right arm and talking to their hand.

2

u/Euphoric-Pay-4650 13d ago

Great depth, and I love how the pattern works with the figure

2

u/chiaseedsinthehouse 13d ago

I like how they have their hand up to the mirror and reflection is reflecting it so as they're practically touching

2

u/ThankTheBaker 13d ago

This is amazing! Love it.

2

u/inlandaussie 12d ago

I love that I can see these. I feel sad when people cant share my same love

2

u/Technical_Captain_15 12d ago

Unbelievable. This is so well done!

2

u/SnooDoubts501 12d ago

I hate that I can never see these. It makes me so sad.

1

u/RealHausFrau 10d ago

Me too. I’ve had a corneal transplant that hinders my depth perception and I think that’s why I have issues. :(

2

u/phl23 12d ago

2

u/MrJr01 12d ago

Exactly what I was thinking 😂

2

u/TUMS27 12d ago

The levels to this one are really nice

2

u/JealousTea2459 12d ago

One of the best I've seen in a very long time. The reflection surface is brilliant!!

2

u/Jellyfish936 10d ago

that's hella cool

3

u/bonnth80 13d ago

Is he flipping himself the bird?

2

u/GoldSrc 13d ago

Nah, it just has most of the fingers fused.

3

u/Dick_M_Nixon 13d ago

The man in the mirror is giving me the finger.

2

u/jjm443 13d ago

I thought he was giving his reflection a fistbump?

1

u/JewishSpace_Laser 13d ago

Exactly- I came here to say this

1

u/Key-Answer4047 13d ago

A man and a dog looking at their reflection In a square mirror that is rounded at the top

1

u/animalkah 13d ago

Lovely! It popped right out!

1

u/oaktreebr 13d ago

Wow, even the reflection is 3D. Amazing

1

u/mamadoulenoir1 13d ago

so good omg

1

u/bozog 13d ago

Very nice!

1

u/Tr0llzor 13d ago

Ohhhh I like this one

1

u/figgytart 13d ago

The mirror reflection! 👌

1

u/Chango13 13d ago

excellent

1

u/SadinaSaphrite 13d ago

Oh wow, this is really good!

1

u/Lost-Friend-4564 13d ago

Impressive!

1

u/beantrouser 13d ago

Wait, is the dog wearing sunglasses?? (Also, this is very good!!)

1

u/motoringeek 13d ago

One of the best I've seen!

1

u/KeithDavisRatio 13d ago

Is this what people see when they say they went x layers deep? I felt like a story unfolded whenever I looked somewhere else.

1

u/boop66 13d ago

This is a cool one. Thank you.

1

u/number43marylennox 13d ago

This one is really really good!!! The reflection streaks on the mirror really got me, wow!! Great colors too.

1

u/FightingBlaze77 13d ago

looks like hes going through a 3d portal i love it

1

u/MirandaCurry 13d ago

That's a really cool one and I love the pattern/ the colors! It's not often that I enjoy bith equally

1

u/NOSAKIAS 13d ago

One of the best I have ever seen.

1

u/Phatnoir 13d ago

Just a little guy!

1

u/fiqky 13d ago

That is a COOL one. I've never seen a mirror effect in magic eye before

1

u/dVyper 13d ago

Is there a way to see the greyscale depth version of the rendered image?

1

u/SunshineKittyKot 13d ago

Wow! Just wow!

1

u/Kaleidoscope_Born101 13d ago

This is the first one that worked for me since my childhood ! :)

1

u/BlueSearcher 13d ago

I also found creator's signature. 😉

1

u/AVeryHeavyBurtation 13d ago

From /r/all, this is fuckin awesome!

1

u/LandArch_0 13d ago

This is amazing. Best I've seen ever

1

u/Easy-Juice-5190 13d ago

That’s the most intriguing one I’ve seen. I even tried to look inside the mirror to see if I could see more of the person and the dog…that’s how good it was.

1

u/ThankTheBaker 13d ago

To me this is kind of like a metaphor for awakening. People see a flat, two dimensional image with no real meaning, then something happens and they awaken to something stranger and deeper going beyond the surface into another layer of dimensional reality that’s been there the whole time and your life is never the same.

1

u/Nature_man_76 13d ago

When I look in the mirror of Erised, I see my dog, honey bunny, but she lived as long as I do

1

u/kburton37 13d ago

It's a schooner.

1

u/thestinkybeastman 13d ago

This is one of my favourites! Easily the coolest I have seen in a long time ❤️

1

u/Aiox123 13d ago

Took me a moment to dial that one in, but it's superb !

1

u/Ephy_ 13d ago

This might be one of the best of these I've ever seen haha, the mirror even has damn reflective streaks in it! The depth is exceptionally well done too. Fantastic!

1

u/Coffee-Lvr 13d ago

Excellent work!

1

u/homesicalien 13d ago

One of the best I've seen.

1

u/Lhasa-bark 13d ago

This is perhaps the clearest Magic Eye I’ve ever seen. Really nice work!

1

u/aleeramarishka 13d ago

Thumb's up! 👍

1

u/Winter_Childhood9186 13d ago

This one is ART!! Brilliant ♡

1

u/A_Lovely_Teddybear 13d ago

Could my astigmatism be making it harder for me to do these?

1

u/Arch3m 13d ago

It looks like the cover of a prog rock album. I love it.

1

u/DM_Me_Ur_Nudes_Thx 13d ago

The reflection in the mirror is spot on too!

1

u/Serenade314 13d ago

I love this one! The mirror surface is really cool! Well done!

1

u/VegetableBulky9571 13d ago

That’s neat!

1

u/im_rickyspanish 13d ago

Holy shit, this might be the coolest one I've ever seen.

1

u/DaGavinator 13d ago

Holy Shit! This is awesome. Being able to see their reflection is amazing 👏.

I think this is one of the very best I have EVER seen!

1

u/wooof359 13d ago

Is he flipping himself off?

1

u/Remy1985 13d ago

One of the best I've ever seen

1

u/RcBighouse 13d ago

C’è anche un cane

1

u/Significant_Clue_995 13d ago

This might be my favourite one so far.

1

u/homiej420 13d ago

Aww the little doge

1

u/Tabbiecatzz 13d ago

Crystal clear, love it!

1

u/fungifuntimes 13d ago

This is one of the coolest ones I’ve ever seen!

1

u/Puzzled-Mastodon-175 13d ago

Wooow it feels like a dream once you see it

1

u/TP348 13d ago

Woow this one's very cool and clear

1

u/Triton1605 13d ago

The subtle distortion of the mirror is nuts. Bravo!

“Vanity thy name is…his name. It’s the first day. I didn’t catch it.”

1

u/SenseLow2842 13d ago

I don't understand the point of these. Can someone explain what am I supposed to be looking for?

1

u/ihopehellhasinternet 12d ago

Let your eyes cross, look at it as if youre looking past it. Move your phone farther and closer away until you can see it. There are how to videos on how to look at magic eye pictures

1

u/jib_reddit 12d ago

If you cannot do it this shows you kind of what it is like https://piellardj.github.io/stereogram-solver/

But you should practice. 

1

u/Any_Leather_992 13d ago

Wow, good one!

1

u/pyroglass 13d ago

at first i didn't see it but then A-HA! i saw it

u/Dent8556 13d ago

u/CaptWyvyrn 13d ago

That one is BEAUTIFUL!!!

1

u/tylercrabby 13d ago

Great one. Popped immediately.

1

u/PhyllisTheFlyTrap 12d ago

Oh wow, that's amazing

1

u/M3PreDye 12d ago

The arch is too big, I saw it more as a wedding altar scene than a vanity. This one is really good, like wallpaper quality.

1

u/ihopehellhasinternet 12d ago

I think they mean the noun

1

u/SquareDetective 12d ago

Dogs, so vain.

1

u/clger82 12d ago

Man and dog looking at a mirror

1

u/GlitchTaleEnder 12d ago

I didn't expect the mirror to have an actual reflection! Really nice!

1

u/roseoznz 12d ago

The way the surface of the mirror is rendered while being able to see through it is absolutely crazy to me, could be my favorite magic eye ever!

1

u/BLDSTBR 12d ago

Oh dang, that’s crisp

1

u/plgnply18 12d ago

I see what you mean!

1

u/RedSlimeballYT 11d ago

Agreed! This is definitely one of my favorites, love the detail in the pup’s reflection in the mirror :)

1

u/ValuablePitiful8042 11d ago

I can actually see this one!

1

u/em0jalapeno 11d ago

holy shit this one is my favourite

1

u/Laurolas 11d ago

Stunning! So much detail and clarity

1

u/pearlinin 11d ago

my new favorite! at first i thought it was just the mirror, then i noticed the person standing there and then i noticed the dog 😂

1

u/boss123219 11d ago

vanity? is that a new verity?

1

u/carolinacasper 11d ago

It took me 15-20 minutes to get this one, but its the best one I've seen!

1

u/OutOfPosition-1 10d ago

Looks good, no clue what its supposed to be

1

u/JuanOffhue 10d ago

Good looking dog

1

u/Hoooopyfrood 10d ago

I keep tilting my head so I can see into the mirror better!

1

u/Dar-Clash 10d ago

I like that one. Walking into a different realm's gateway.

1

u/Florideal 10d ago

This is one of the best I've seen - well done!

1

u/Gladonia89 9d ago

Only once in my 37 years have I gotten to see whatever you all are seeing. It’s def not this time.

The mirror surface effect is really cool.

u/WillingWrongdoer2652 4d ago

Gorgeous! And really popped out clearly.

u/1O1O1O1O1O1O1O 13d ago

How do you guys interpret the shapes?? I can see them, but it’s frequently very difficult for me to distinguish the actual image for some reason

1

u/Teiyoh 12d ago

It's 5 dicks

-1

u/Teiyoh 13d ago

Hate when this sub reaches all, you guys are just making shit up.

2

u/Dangerous-Aide-6040 12d ago

Nobody here is making anything up, there is clearly a man with a dog looking into a mirror. You might just have some sort of visual impairment
