Optical illusion lovers, there’s a delightful surprise behind Seattle’s Safeco Field ballpark.

If you’re beside the chain link fence, it looks like someone randomly shoved ping pong balls into spaces. But seen from a distance, the fence merges into an ingenious black and white benday mural. Be ready to do a screeching U-turn like I did (or at least a serious double-take!)

I’d love to know who created the mural. Anyone have info on this?
