‘How Many Girls Are In This Photo?:’ This Optical Illusion Left The Internet Baffled
Can you guess how many?
It appears simple enough, how many girls are in the image below? People are undeniably freaking out as they argue the number of people in this shot, and just like any trending subject, the Instagram post has taken a life of its, becoming a viral flooded with comments.

It appears simple enough, but how many girls are in the image below?
The project titled: #WHP Identity encouraged people to submit photos that flaunt individuality. Vergari’s picture featured a group of girls sitting by a mirror. It created an optical illusion, making it difficult to tell how many girls in the image. Many people have argued there are some identical twins involved; some argued there are four, while a few said there are three.

The color, light, and image pattern can downright trick one’s brain into misinterpreting it. However, Vergari herself has set the record straight in the comment section, revealing its two sisters (her biological children). If you look closely, one looked in a mirror while the second was looking away, with that image repeated. The illusion is due to how the camera is positioned, not permitting the eye to see the closer sister’s mirror.
