If you watch the above images from your seat in front of the computer,

Mr.Angry is on the left, and Mrs.Calm is on the right.

Get up from your seat, and move back a couple of feet, and PRESTO!!

The blurry effect is actually the opposite image but blurred off. the sharp one is the opposite of the bluured one.

Eg. the blur imeage of the calm face is behind the sharp image of the angry face. and becos we can only see the blur things from far (theory of short-sightedness), the blurr image looked clearer, hence replacing the sharp image....

dunno whether did i explained clearly?

HAHA

Hahaha, real cool! Btw, I get the same effect without moving back cos my chair is right against the wall, I just cross my eyes... 'parjiao'

No need pajiao lah, i just use my computer and "zoom out" the image and got the same thing.
