6. Optical Illusion Photo

It's all a matter of perspective — is the glass half full or half empty? Is someone running down the hill or up the hill?

8. Constellation Wall Hanging

"I own the stars because nobody before me ever thought of owning them." That's according to the title character of the classic children's book, "The Little Prince."
