The Internet is always a place full of magical images created by netizens, causing dizziness every time you look at them. However, in nature there are also many illusions that will make you “confused”.

If you still don’t believe it, here are 12 beautiful natural scenes that look like they’re graphic:

#1 What looked like a surrealist painting turned out to be just a photo from the Deadvlei region in the Namib Desert

Located inside the Namib-Naukluft National Park, Deadvlei is an area containing many trees that have died and have not yet decayed due to the extremely arid climate. The landscape was then flooded by water from the nearby Tsauchab River, becoming a special location for photographers, creating contrasts between water, trees and sand.

#2 The waterfall is below the water’s surface

Along the coast of the country of Mauritius, there seems to be a river flowing just below the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean. But in fact, this is not a waterfall, but a phenomenon caused by sand flow pushed out from the Mascarene plateau.

#3 Salt fields in Bolivia are an ideal place to create psychedelic images

Bolivia’s “Salar de Uyuni” salt flat, the world’s largest, is covered with a thin layer of water, becoming a giant reflective surface. If you stand here and look out, you will see that the horizon seems to be endless, allowing photographers and tourists to create extremely beautiful illusion images.

#4 Horsetail Fall looks like a lava flow

Every year, around the second week of February, sunlight will cause the Horsetail Fall waterfall in Yosemite National Park to become a red-yellow lava flow, if viewed from the right angle.

#5 The undulating stone alley causes hallucinations

This special rock formation is known as “The Wave” in the Arizona region.

#6 A silhouette of a person with a rainbow shining above his head at the top of a Slovakian mountain

In fact, this phenomenon is created when our shadow reflects on the surface of a cloud or dense fog, the beginning of the shadow is covered with a rainbow, caused by a special optical phenomenon, when Sunlight shines on water droplets suspended in the atmosphere scattered towards the observer.

#7 At sea, objects at a distance appear to be floating on the water

This mirage phenomenon, called “Fata Morgana”, is created when light bends as it passes through a layer of hot air that is warmer than the layer below it.

#8 The illusion appears to be a lake in the desert

Similar to Fata Morgana, the phenomenon of seeing lakes in the desert is actually caused by the layer of air below being warmer than the layer above. When light shines through these layers, it bends, creating the inverted illusion of an object, like a mountain range in the distance or a blue sky, that looks like the surface of a lake.

#9 On hot days, the asphalt looks like it has been watered

Again a similar phenomenon with Fata Morgana and the desert lake. Asphalt roads often retain heat for a long time and thus cause the air above the surface to become very hot. That makes you think that the illusion of the sky is actually a puddle on the asphalt.

#10 False sun phenomenon

Known as “Sundogs”, this phenomenon occurs when sunlight is refracted by ice crystals floating in the air, creating one or more bright patches of light next to the Sun.

#11 UFO Cloud

Mysterious clouds resembling the shape of alien flying saucers formed below the wind blowing of a mountain range. With low enough temperatures, under the right conditions, moisture in the air condenses to create these giant clouds.

#12 A butterfly with a snake head

When threatened, the Atlas moth will fall to the ground and flap its wings to “scare” the enemy, because at the top of each shell it looks like a snake!
