Do some people actually say "anti-clockwise"? Never heard that before. Only ever used "counter-clockwise".

Anyways, at first I was positive she was going clockwise, but the shadow below her fet made me think she was going counter-clockwise.


Actually, I've never heard counter-clockwise before. All my life I've heard anti-clockwise. Do people actually say counter-clockwise?


Are you being serious, or is this just your usual self coming out?

Clockwise. Can't make it counterclockwise.

1.



2. She's twirling clockwise. Anyone who says different, please report for psychiatric examination. EDIT: She changed directions.

3. SPINOZA, she's not a cow. Although Koreans may snicker at the size of her butt, she has a very shapely figure, IMO. Definitely watches what she eats and hasn't experienced the ravages of childbirth yet. I'm pleased with the subject matter the scientists who created this amusing little experiment selected. Hope it makes the feminazis growl.

Damn it. I've looked at this thing three times now, and she is only spinning counter clockwise for sure. Are you guys seriously seeing her change direction, or is this just some giant plot to make me thing I suck?

Tried looking at the shadow only, tilting my head like another poster suggested. No avail. She's a counter clockwise girl all the way.

I'm left-handed and all I can see is counter-clockwise. I'll read the article now and we'll see if anything changes...

The first time I looked I only saw counter-clockwise, so that's what I chose. But now, like others, it is different everytime, and constantly changing every 2 seconds.
What's even more weird is that when I only look at the foot she's standing on, I don't see it spinning at all, only going back and forth, facing away from the screen.
I'm right-handed.

I went and had lunch, and now she's clockwise.

I must think with a different side of my brain after I've been fed haha.

I've worked out how to change her direction at will, almost.

Take your eye away so she's in the corner of your eye. Stare into space, daydream. Look back at the screen.

Importantly, unlike the duck-rabbit (which is always simultaneously a duck AND a rabbit) this woman is never moving both ways at the same time. You must remove or distort your focus to make her change.

Fascinating stuff I must say.

Saw clockwise first for quite a while. Then I saw it counter. It goes back and forth for men.

Until the first time when you see her twirl in the opposite direction, it seems like the most impossible thing. It took me many attempts. I thought people were lying or crazy.

Now I can "pre-select" which direction she spins by focusing on something else while keeping her twirling leg sort of buzzing in the corner of my eye. Then it's just a matter of waiting a moment for that leg is start going in the direction I want to see her twirl.

I don't know what any of you are talking about.

She isn't moving!

Clockwise she goes ... however I can make her go anti-clockwise by scrolling the top of the picture away so all I can see is from her knees down.
The moment I scroll her body back into view ... she changes back to Clockwise.

... Cool pic .. filled in the last few mins until home time!

Have a good'un
