Da Vinci Notes #33 - Perception on New Discoveries
When the eye, coming out of darkness suddenly sees a luminous body,
it will appear much larger at first sight than after long looking at
it. The illuminated object will look larger and more brilliant, when
seen with two eyes than with only one.
A luminous object will appear smaller in size, when the eye sees
it through a smaller opening. A luminous body of an oval form will
appear rounder in proportion as it is farther from the eye.
Keith's Ideas:
1. Just upon you discover something new, you see it better than it really
is at the first sight. Don't jump to conclusion yet!
2. When something/someone is attracting you, again it/he/she looks better
than it/he/she actually is!
