I can see her moving in both directions and even see her swaying back and forth. Does this mean I am smarter than the next guy? No. This is a perceptual thing… the picture is NOT changing – your mind is making it change.

Give me a “Where’s Waldo” book or one of those blurry pixel pictures that are supposed to come into focus if you stare at the center point long enough… I can’t do it while others can.

When I first see her ,she is spinning clockwise. But I can cause her to stop her clockwise rotation and begin turning her counterclockwise for one half a turn and then reverse her rotation to clockwise .You can repeat that sequence ,so that she will not make a full rotation. However, after awhile you lose consentration and she begins to turn clockwise on her own….
Now, if you could stop her from spinning–that might be something to talk about

It takes some concentration to make her switch directions. Focus on her feet and try to decide whether they are going behind her or in front of her. It sometimes helps if you tilt your head to the right or the left.

She’s actually moving from side to side. Great illusion though!

I see her both ways. when she spins to one side i can change the direction i see her turning into and she just goes from clockwise to counterclockwise over and over and over.

I see both, and it’s not my L or R brain or my eyes playing tricks on me. The gif itself is changing. Yes, I think this “optical illusion” is a fun trick…on everyone. ;)
