    It’s hard to make it a wall when looking at the other end of the lake. But when looking at the foot of the wall, it’s hard to make it a lake. I really like this illusion.

      It’s because of the tree’s “shadows” on the lake.

      There is a dirty spot right where a shadow should be on the right trees and the tree in the yard blocks all the shadows of where the other trees should be.

      If you removed the tree and cleaned the wall it wouldn’t look like a lake at all.

    This reminds me of that one time I went with a friend to a large forest. We had taken a 2 hour train trip to get there and then walked through the forest until we found a good spot halfway up a hill overlooking a river through the trees. We got super high and chilled there for a couple of hours. When we got up, a car drove over the river and we were super confused. Turns out it was a road all along but there was hardly any traffic, so we didn’t realize earlier.

    This seems like a prime opportunity for a good mural to really highlight the effect.
