Perspective can be everything when it comes to taking pictures. Sometimes, when you snap them at the right place and time, the outcome can be so mind-boggling that one glance is not enough. Whether it's a hand going through a cat's body or light fixtures that resemble pigeons, such images call for a double-take in order to stop your head from spinning.

Enter the subreddit Confusing Perspectives, a place “for puzzling perspectives, confusing angles, and missing context.” This community with more than 1.4M members shares baffling content that will make you think your mind is playing tricks on you.

We have collected some of the most bizarre photos we could find on this subreddit, so check them out below! And after you’re done, make sure to check out Part 1 of this post right here.
