I couldn't stop staring at her banana ups long enough to figure out how the illusion is tricking me.

wait a minute this picture freaks me out.. at first it seemed so obvious she was turning clockwise. I kept trying to figure out how it could be seen as counter-clockwise, and looked off the left of the screen for a second. I looked back and suddenly she's spinning counter-clockwise. I can't figure this out.

edit: now she's back at clockwise.. this picture is riveting.

Bizarre...I'm left-handed and see it as clock-wise. According to the article, that makes sense as it means I use the right-side of my brain more. Still...everyone so far is agreeing, which is strange as most people are right-handed.

That's mad! She spins both ways! I keep going back to her, and she's always spinning a different way from the last time! Does that mean my left brain and right brain are fighting it out?!

Totally mad. This time I stared at it continuously, and she spun one way, and then the other, and back again. Equally left and right, so I don't know which I should choose.

Same here. At 1st clockwise and then the direction keeps changing. Oh, and if it matters, I'm lefthanded.

What other can I say than, "She's a spinner!"

there's a poster who has an avatar with a bunch of dots going around in a spherical pattern, moving around one way or another depending on how you focus on it. i can see both sides of that.

but for the life of me, i can't get this bitch to spin counter clockwise.

i don't think it's a good find at all. i think the people who said she goes both ways are just fucking with us.

I see it as clockwise. But if I scroll down just far enough that I can only see her shadow, it appears to be going counter-clockwise. Anyone else notice this?

The article says most people would see her spinning counter clockwise, I wonder what it means that we're all saying the opposite at first anyway
