You have eagle eyes if you can spot the hidden key in the bookshelf in 7 seconds!

Optical illusions are pictures that deceive our visual system into seeing things that aren’t actually there or misinterpreting what we observe. In ancient times, such illusions were often attributed to witchcraft, spirits, or supernatural forces. However, scientists later discovered that these tricks are simply the result of how our brains process visual information.

Many optical illusion images are designed by blending objects, colours, etc. These elements are strategically arranged to create deceptive effects, making hidden details appear or disappear. One such optical illusion is presented here, where the readers are asked to spot a hidden key in the bookshelf in 7 seconds.
