20 Photos That Made Us Think We Were Dreaming

You might wonder why some images confuse us for a few seconds when we see them for the first time. Well, that happens when our brain and eyes try to communicate with each other, but the connection gets a little mixed up. Sometimes our brain just guesses wrong, which is normal, and that makes for a fun challenge trying to decipher these visual riddles it creates.
