An oldie, but still amazes me....

So is this spinning clockwise or counter-clockwise?

Look at the reflection of the foot. It should jump your eye/mind and you will see it going counter....

reflections often go opposite, I was just judging from the body position and what not

Try looking at the figure and then blink; she may appear to change directions immediately after you blink. Another strategy is to focus on a specific part of the figure.

Looks the same to me, I see the foot and it throws it off counter but just what I'm looking at is the body position and POV in which it is clockwise

My eyes see clockwise, but the position of her ponytail seems to indicate counter clockwise.

Theres 13 stars for the first 13 states.

That was probably the best design of stars to go in a circl configuration.

But yes. Nice tits.

It's just a set of pictures that are shown in loop that gives the illusion of "spinning". It's neither counter nor clockwise, it's just your brain trying to put familiarity to the pictures/motion and the fact they're reversing, and cueing off of the spatial absence.

What causes some people to be able to see both while others only see one, I don't know. You just have to believe in the nimbleness of your mind, I suppose. You can coach your brain to reverse the construct and "spinner" the other way. :yes:

No matter how many times I look at it, it is always spinning clockwise.

Must be a strong mind vs weak mind thing... lol. Only weak minds see it switch.

I keed, I keed.
