             I saw her first going clockwise, and then i looked down, and when i looked back up she turned
counterclockwise.. Then i looked down again and back up, she switched again...it was back and forth...
What the hell does that make  me....nuts..........?? :laugh:

Tip for Kerry: for me, it's the easiest to let het change directions in the moment when her outward foot is at the 3 o'clock or 9 o'clock position (=pointing directly to the left or right side of the pic).

I tried what you suggest and she's still spinning clockwise.  :-\

Alas, it would appear that I am an inveterate half-wit! Looks like the entire left hemisphere of my brain has atrophied and withered away!  :'(   ;)

That is really weird Kerry! Where did you find this? I see her rotating clockwise, but if I look away and try hard enough, she appears to be spinning counter clockwise and then if I look at the screen she's still doing it, but then suddenly reverses back to clockwise again.  :o

I found it at the site of one of my local, Sydney, newspapers, David.

I thought it would be a fun exercise for my dear BetterMost neighbours.  :D

I have added a third option, "Both," 'cause a lot of respondents appear to see the dancer moving both ways. I think I made the settings so you can change your vote. Let me know if you are having trouble changing it and I will ask David to check the settings.  :)

Try it now Rob. You should see a new option up there in the poll that says "remove vote". To change it, click on the remove vote link and then recast it. :)

Kerry, I took the liberty of changing this for you. If this isn't the way you wanted it, please let me know and I will restore your original settings. :D

Yep, like most of you initially I saw her as clockwise but if I look with my peripheral vision she goes counter clockwise and if I close one eye or squint I can change her direction at will, even stop her mid spin but it gave me a headache  :-\  Thanks Kerry that was fascinating  :D  Your not alone though I got Bob to look at her and he only sees her spinning clockwise and can't change her no matter how hard he tries...  ;)
