Nice collection and thanks for all the traffic ;-)
Here's one I made of the Red Tower in northern Malta

Here's one I made from a scene I rendered myself in Bryce:

Could someone find out why this works?
This isn't actually an Optical Illusion (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_illusion) at all; there's nothing deceptive or misleading going on. This is actually color adaptation (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptation_%28eye%29) - your eyes try to balance the colors you see. The same thing happens if you've ever had orange ski goggles on for any length of time. Eventually, you see normal colors, and when you take them off, everything's blue! It's because your eyes have adapted to orange, so your brain compensates - when the orange goes away, your brain is still compensating for it. Same thing is happening here: you're forcing your brain to compensate for the color negative by adapting in the other direction, which also happens to be the correct colors of the castle when you take the colors away.
Okay I did the tutorial, I just dunno how to make a roll over of summit on a website

Here's one I made from a pigeon house of my town, in Segovia, Spain.

heres one that i made http://www.liquidgeneration.com/sabotage/optical_sabotage.asp
I made it "Kinkaku-ji temple"

I would just like to say that 30 seconds is unnecessary, 15 works just fine, and does anyone know the minimum amount of time before it takes effect, or does it differ from person to person?
I also made one from France at the address: http://www.zenzi.org/blog.php?dateBlog=2007-05-15
I made a version here with a sunflower field.

Great tutorial, thank you!
