When you look off into the distance, objects
seem closer together as they become further
away. For example, the outside borders of a
road or railroad appear to converge as they
recede into the distance. The Ponzo illusion
involves placing two lines over an illustration
of a railroad track. Which line is longer? In
reality, they are exactly the same length.
