Inter position - board eraser is overlapping hand sanitizer making it appear closer than it is.

relative size

2025-10-09 19:05:27 UTC

the apple juice appears to be larger than the water bottle because of how close it is to the camera, but in reality that may not be true

As you can see here, his eyes seemingly start to move inwards when I put the pencil closely in between both of his eyes

Shape Constacy

2025-10-09 21:48:17 UTC

A door is seen as a rectangle even when partially opened and viewed from an angle. This constancy allows us to consistently identify objects despite changes in their appearance due to perspective.

The key chain of pompompurin is in close proximity to my face, hence why my eyes turn inward!

Figure Ground

2025-10-10 17:33:40 UTC

This would be an example of figure ground because despite there being other things and details around, if your focus is on pink Pom Poms then you’ll notice them first.

Shape Constancy

2025-10-10 17:39:16 UTC

Regardless of distance or angle of view, you can tell that the black posters on the cardboard drawer are rectangles.

Relative Size

2025-10-10 18:11:01 UTC

The pencil and my Spanish teacher in the back; Ms. Flores, represents relative size because although the pencil isn’t as tall or big as a human, it seems as though because it is closer to the camera and Ms. Flores is farther.

Liner perspective

2025-10-10 18:28:35 UTC

The lines appear to converge, making the end of the path look far away.

Retinal Disparity

2025-10-10 18:30:35 UTC

Retinal Disparity: When each eye sees a slightly different picture because of their separate positions on our face. The first picture is a representation of what my right eye sees when I close my left eye and the second picture is what my left eye sees when I close my right eye. There is a clear difference as shown by how the rods appear.

Relative Size

2025-10-10 18:32:59 UTC

Objects closer to us appear larger, while objects further away appear smaller. The part of the school closest to the camera appears larger and more distinct than the part further back, which looks significantly smaller, despite being of similar size and structure.

2025-10-10 18:33:50 UTC

In this picture with the help of both eyes I am able to see this full images, as if with one eye close I wouldn't have been able to see the person on the right or the phone on the left.

Convergence

2025-10-10 18:34:07 UTC

Eyes are turned inward to maintain focus on the pen that’s near to her eyes.

Relative clarity

s9099470 — 2025-10-10 18:34:57 UTC

You can see the trees and car clearly since they’re up close to the window! However, the further out you go, the less you can make out.

Texture Gradient

2025-10-10 18:35:42 UTC

The image on the wall appears to have a dense texture from afar.

Color Constancy

2025-10-10 18:36:58 UTC

Even with a shining flashlight, my brain still perceives the carrots as orange because it knows objects tend to keep the same color under different lighting conditions.

Similarity

2025-10-10 18:38:55 UTC

The books with the same design/style are grouped together in my mind. Even without reading the titles, I see them as belonging to the same series.

Monocular Dept Cues (

2025-10-10 18:41:08 UTC

In this phenomenon the pencil seems to appear closer as it appears clearer compared to the objects behind.

Color constancy

s9099470 — 2025-10-10 18:41:55 UTC

Even with all the shadings or/and highlights, the flooring is still the same color!

Black, white, green and blueish green :)

Binocular Depth

2025-10-10 18:42:07 UTC

Although far away, we can differentiate the traffic lights due to the high background surrounded by tree leaves and billboard.

Convergence

2025-10-10 18:42:25 UTC

This represents convergence because Trish’s eyes go inward as she tries to focus on a pencil that is close to her in distance.

Figure-ground

The red and white contrast the background

(the light brown closet)

Perceptual constancies (shape constancy

2025-10-10 18:44:31 UTC

In this picture as the track curves it seems to shrink, but we know that the whole track is the same size.

Gestalt Grouping Principle (Figure-Ground

2025-10-10 18:48:55 UTC

As we try to focus to read to words on the pencil the surrounding objects becomes blurry.

Shape Constancy

2025-10-10 18:51:36 UTC

My brain understands that the object’s shape doesn’t actually change even though the angle makes it look different.

Figure Ground - Convergence

2025-10-10 18:52:50 UTC

As the pen gets closer, your eyes must turn inward (cross) to keep both pupils centered on the same point, allowing you to see a single, clear image.

Monocular Cues - Interposition

2025-10-10 18:55:24 UTC

A visual depth cue where one object partially overlaps another object. This cur allows the brain to perceive the front object being closer and the back object as farther away.

2025-10-10 18:55:56 UTC

Retinal Disparity: What is blind to my left is visible to my right eye/vice versa. The first picture is what I see when I close my right eye and the second picture is what I see when I close my left eye.

2025-10-10 18:57:00 UTC

This shows retinal disparity because each eye sees the finger slightly differently, helping the brain tell how close it is.

Perceptual Constancies - Color Constancy

2025-10-10 18:57:07 UTC

The psychological phenomenon where we perceive an object’s color as consistent despite changes in its illumination/lighting.

Relative Size

2025-10-10 18:57:18 UTC

The close pencil appears huge compared to my classmate and classroom objects

Closure

2025-10-10 18:57:30 UTC

The idea of closure is that we fill in missing pieces to see a whole shape. In this picture there is gap on the bottom side, but your mind still sees a full square.

Gestalt Grouping Principles - Similarity

2025-10-10 18:59:26 UTC

We group objects according to how similar they are to each other.

Convergence

2025-10-10 19:00:18 UTC

The 2 Students Overlap each other from a lower view causing the student to the right to be nearly invisible

Convergence

2025-10-10 19:00:50 UTC

As my eyes turn inward to focus on a close object, my brain uses how much my eyes move together (convergence) to tell distance.

2025-10-10 19:02:25 UTC

Relative Size: Objects closer look bigger than objects further away. In this case the water and the red drink.

Color Constancy

2025-10-10 19:03:01 UTC

Color Constancy shows that even when the lighting changes we perceive colors as staying the same. This is shown with the orange marker looking orange in both a bright and dark lighting.

2025-10-10 19:03:47 UTC

This image shows color constancy. color constancy is when an object’s color looks the same even if the lighting changes.

Size Consistency

2025-10-10 19:03:55 UTC

The air purifier shows size consistency because its height, width, and shape stays the same

Figure Ground

2025-10-10 19:05:26 UTC

The laptop and papers are the figure, while the dark backpack background helps them stand out clearly.

Closure

2025-10-10 19:05:52 UTC

Even though the sign doesn’t show a full picture of the school or people, my brain fills in the missing parts and understands what it means. This shows closure — our minds complete incomplete images or shapes to make sense of them.

2025-10-10 19:06:24 UTC

figure ground is when we see one part of an image as the main object the figure and the rest as the background the ground.

Linear Perspective

2025-10-10 19:07:51 UTC

Linear Perspective is the visual principal that creates the illusion of depth and distance in a flat surface. This is shown with the lockers as the lines appear to converge as they get farther away from you, even though they are all the same size and evenly distanced.

2025-10-10 19:08:09 UTC

linear perspective is when parallel lines appear to come together as they go farther away, showing depth or distance.

-aden

Retinal Disparity

2025-10-10 19:11:36 UTC

When comparing the two objects the closer pictures seem to shift position, but the background doesn’t move much. This shows retinal disparity because I took one picture from left eye and the other from the right. The brain used that difference to sense depth.

2025-10-11 02:23:35 UTC

Shape Constancy: If the bottle was looked at from different angles, its shape would still be the same.

2025-10-11 02:25:33 UTC

Gestalt Grouping; Similarity

Two different groups are present, one group with darker colors and other with bright colors.

2025-10-11 03:14:35 UTC

This picture shows color constancy, the color stays the same even if one place is darker then the other.

Relative size

2025-10-11 03:27:10 UTC

The pencil and Spider-Man in the back, represents relative size because although the pencil isn't as tall or big as the Spider-Man it seems like it because it is closer to the camera and the Spider-Man is further

Figure ground

2025-10-11 03:33:55 UTC

Figure-ground is when we see one part of an image as the main object(the figure) and the rest as the background (the ground).For example, a pair of headphones against a wall

2025-10-11 03:43:31 UTC

Retinal disparity occurs because each eye sees slightly different views of the same scene. What is hidden from my left eye is visible to my right eye, and it’s the same why for the other. The top picture shows what I see with my right eye closed, and the bottom shows what I see with my left eye closed.
