How to Create The Mona Lisa Effect in a Picture
Tips to help create the Mona Lisa Effect.
By beginning i shall love to give a brief summary about the Mona Lisa image and what i mean by the Mona Lisa effect. The Mona Lisa image was a painting by Leonardo Da Vinci who live at some time around the 1500. This image had some sort of symbolism in it which has really puzzled people. People have tried for hundred of years to study the hidden meanings behind that image but they have not been able to succeed. But how ever they have noticed many things such as the nature of the light in the picture, the mixture of the colours and the smile on the woman’s face.

Some people such as me have also noticed the 3D look of the picture. Let me explain what i mean, if you have a good look at the painting you shall notice that, no matter which direction you look at it from, you shall still perceive the picture in a manner as if it were looking at you. when I look at the image from the left corner, it looked as if it was staring at me, I did the same from the right corner at it still was staring at me, it also did the same from the center and even upwards. So after wandering for sometime I decided to investigate how same effect could be created in a normal picture.
So I began taking photos of different people. I took about a thousand pictures but yet they was no trace of the Mona Lisa effect. They was no trace of that method which could make a picture stare at you from any direction you look at it. I continued to Investigate, I took the Mona Lisa image and looked at it everyday, I even went online to check for more images but I saw so many fake images which looked liked the Mona Lisa, so beware, they are some of the Mona Lisa images which are facing the right instead of the left direction, so be careful and do not get a fake image of the Mona Lisa.
Then I went for more investigations, I also uncovered this fact that the image was named after a Greek Goddess Amon Isis and arranged to Mona Lisa, anyway i do not buy that idea completely because I got it from Dan Brown’s Da Vinci Code. After a long day of investigations, I was tired and i decided to look at the pictures in my computer. when they pictures flapped over and over again, I was shocked to see one of my dad’s pictures staring boldly at me( i can not put the picture in this article but if you really wish to see it, contact me and I shall send it to you)
At first I began asking my dad questions of the time in particular which the picture was taken, the place and so many things, and the things I uncovered where that: to produce this effect the person needs to be in a room, it has to be morning around the rising sun, the person’s dressing has to be made up of some quantity of black, the lights of the room had to be on and the person has to be sitting with the light over him some sort of behind him. The last secret was that, the person has to open his eyes a little and dim it, blur the eyes as if you are trying to charm a lady with it. Just practice the methods above and you shall see it for your self.

I hope everybody shall understand what i mean when i say the person has to dim his eyes. You have to blur the eyes in a certain manner as if you are trying to hypnotize someone, as if you where falling at sleep.
