Hi!

I saw her clockwise in the original post, and now that I'm replying I'm seeing her anti-clockwise.

What does it mean?

I agree based on the shadow she cannot be turning clockwise, however, since I can make her appear to be turning in either direction at will, I realize she is not turning at all. This is a two dimentional figure presented to human brains that do not think in two dimentions.

How's that for realism.

The woman is definitely spinning clockwise ONLY!
There is no counterclock motion at all!

I also saw both directions... I still can't figure out how to control it, but if I look anywhere outside the picture and then I look back at it, it sometimes changes... but sometimes don't :S

I feel really stupid actually

I thought it was only me, so I waited for many comments, and now I see I'm not the only 100% EMOTIONAL person here! haha.

(The idea of a spinning boy sounds good to me... Maybe my brain would improve with that!)

Thanks! I liked it a lot.

Same with me, the girl is spinning clockwise,
I look at the sun outside, next thing she is spinning anti-clockwise ... (perhaps wait for a rainy day!).

only I don't feel stupid.

really FASCINATING !!!

I'm so glad you liked this post!!! Will you believe me I spent almost a whole afternoon watching this lovely girl... DROVE ME CRAZY!!! At first I could just see her spinning clockwise, a friend of mine told me she was seeing her just counterclock and I started laughing like crazy... I couldn't believe her. Then another friend could see her spinning both ways... By that time I was definetly loosing my mind!!!!

It's an optical illussion... if you cover her body and just focus her feet you can make her go the other direction. And I don't know how it happens... thanks God I could finally see her going both ways... that's more than enough for me!! hahaha
