Akiyoshi's comment: This may be a new geometrical illusion! Because Professor Watanabe will discover or produce more illusions in the future, I have inserted "2010" in the title.
"Watanabe illusion 2010: its eye direction version"
In the upper image, the girl appears to look at the star. Actually, she looks at the point below the star, as shown in the lower image. This eye-direction demonstration as well was first produced by Professor Watanabe.

Akiyoshi's comment: This version gives even stronger illusion!

This illusion depends on the visual field anisotropy. If the eye direction is horizontal, the illusion magnitude reduces (the girl does not appear to look at the star).
