Thumbs up [OPTICAL ILUSION] Which way is she spinning ??
Quote:
Look at the dancer below. What do you see? Is she turning clockwise or counter-clockwise?
You just can’t help but love these optical illusions.


Quote:
If you see her turning clockwise (right) then your left side of the brain is doing most of the work, which means you are more of a logic/analyzing person.

If you see the dancer turning counter-clockwise (left) then your right side of the brain is in charge, this means you are the artistic/intuition person.

You control the way the dancer turns. Try looking at this with a few more people and see how everyone sees it different.

I can only see her spin CW....
Apparently some folks can switch between her spinning CW & CCW.

I see both...I'm mostly a left brained person though, according to what you posted.

OOh ive got that link bookmarked from ages ago, its great.


i can see both, take me a few seconds to make my mind think shes turnign the other way but i can see both when i want.


I find it easy to make her turn directions by looking at her feet.

I've heard thats common... you'll see her spinning CW then start reading the text & she starts spinning the other direction.
For the life of me I can not get her to spin CCW.

BTW: I'm disapointed no one noticed her nips, but then KC hasn't seen this I'm guessing
