C) Monocular Cue: Linear Perspective

 Linear Perspective

Linear Perspective is the monocular cue created when several lines in a image merge towards a vanishing point.

In the image of the railroad track above, it looks as the track and the building are all merging toward one point in the background. This gives an illusion of depth, even though we know that the tracks are parallel throughout.
