Hidden figures in optical illusions captivate and challenge viewers, blending natural elements with clever camouflage to make the task of spotting them both intriguing and frustrating.

A classic photograph featuring a sailor looking into the distance through a telescope has been making waves online.

At first glance, the image seems to show a young man standing on the shoreline, using a telescope to scan the vast sea before him.

But if you take a closer look, you might just spot something surprising. And remember, things aren’t always as they seem — this optical illusion is trickier than it looks.

According to some, you have the vision of a hawk if you can spot the sailor’s wife in this optical illusion – only 1% of people are able to find her. Are you one of them?

In an interesting twist, the sailor is actually searching for his wife, completely unaware that she’s been right by his side the whole time!

To spot her, you’ll need to tilt your head and let your imagination work.

If you’re having trouble, don’t worry — you’re not alone. Many have struggled with this one.

Feel free to check the answer below if you’re stuck and can’t find the hidden figure.

The wife’s face is cleverly hidden between the telescope stand and the sailor’s legs. It’s not the easiest thing to spot — her face blends in with the background, making it tricky to notice at first!

From time to time, we stumble across puzzles that truly leave us stumped, and part of the fun is then sharing it with others to see who can – for lack of better words – crack the code.

Well, another such image has also surfaced on the web … one that has people busting their brains and scratching their scalps for an answer. See if you’re one of the lucky few who can see what most people can’t.

The picture below is a classic illusion; one that at first glance is as confusing as it is difficult to decipher. Of course, the great thing about such optical tricks is that once you’ve solved them, you can’t be fooled again.

The image in question hides an image within an image. So, when you look at it, what do you see?

Do you see a frog? Do you see a horse? Do you see both?

If it’s one of the first two, then we have something to tell you. Both are in the image, but that doesn’t mean you’ll be able to make them both out.

Almost everyone sees the frog in the image … but finding the horse is where things get tricky. Have a closer look.

The horse

Still don’t see it? OK, we’ll give you a hint.

The image doesn’t contain an entire horse, just the head and neck.

Found if yet? Still no?

Still haven’t found it? Well … the frog’s body is the horses head. Bear that in mind and try again. Good luck!

Did you see both the horse and the frog without needing help?

If you’ve managed to see both, and the sailor’s wife, share this article on Facebook and challenge your friends and family to a bit of fun!
