The Giraffe, a watchtower !

Did you know? The geometric shapes of giraffe fur form optical prospects effects.

Tiles coat giraffe is a part of subdivision, which creates an optical illusion, confusion and visual perspective.

This is the first effect when looking at the zebra or geometric shapes coat giraffe. Visual concentration is directed by beige framing lines and shapes of tiles. The opposite of black is white. The opposite color tiles brown giraffe is beige separation lines and belly.

These effects are all over the fur giraffe, wherever our gaze falls.

The tiles are similar, sometimes larger and sometimes smaller. Some are divided into two, others are twice larger than the average size of a tile.
The set of lines and tiles

The optical effects are divided and / or multiply, and / or fade. Large or small tiles to alter, add.

Subdivision lines shrink, enlarge, frame, stretch or close a prospect.
Paradoxical effects

Lines closer separations give the impression of expanding a tile when it is divided so that tile is made ​​to look smaller. It is therefore the least because subdivided by a narrow line.

Adequacy or inadequacy coat for a large animal to the dimensions of the legs and neck disproportionate?
Focus and écarquillement!

On the body, the coat gets prospects visual focus and its opposite: écarquillement eyes!

Her body is so small but gives a sense of perspective focusing the largest to the smallest. By this optical illusion, the effect of concentration of the visual focus expanded its body using stains, removal blocks.

The largest to the smallest. But the effect will be the opposite watching the disproportionate neck. The large tiles bring us so that we get closer to the head and eyes.

Perspective effects bring us closer to the head and eyes? We therefore observed and identified!
Double protection!

The body appears to be remote, look up the offer dual protection.

The head is smaller than the neck, she has normal dimensions it seems more remote so far she saw us! It is a game of distances and reconciliation.
Effect of removal of the rear body

The prospect is marked by the highest a pool at the back of narrow body broad shoulders. Back steep accentuates the prospect of removal of the rear axle. Rear legs give the impression of being smaller and away in perspective. He also extends his neck size.

Its vision is to front and side, the eye is black so deep, intense, both close and distant and opaque because of the depth of the black color. The eye is visible in contrast with the colors of his beige coat clear around. This also accentuates this effect from a distance!

Tiles are arrows on the coat and show us where to look, focus our eyes!

The neck is set back relative to the sternum and shoulder which increases the effect of verticality and unattainable neck and head.
