Right Brain vs Left Brain Test

Do you see the dancer turning clockwise or anti-clockwise?

Spoiler - Make your choice above, before reading further.

If clockwise, then you use more of the right side of the brain and vice versa.

Most of us would see the dancer turning anti-clockwise though you can try to focus and change the direction. See if you can do it.

Kerry:

Not surprisingly, I see the dancer as turning clockwise.  :D

I am a classic right brain person!  8)

Hey, that's really neat, Kerry  :)
 

Hmmm ...

At first gance it was clockwise (so I voted that way).
When I looked slightly to the side and watched the figure with peripheral vision, it was easy to reverse it to anticlockwise.
Then, it became easy to look directly at the figure and reverse it.
Which might indicate that, either the brain can be trained to perceive things differently, .....
.......... or I'm bipolar  :o

(Which, incidentally, I am not).

Dagi:
First it was clear that she is turning clockwise...and I voted. Then, I watched it again after making my vote, and she was turning anti-clockwise.  :P  Then I started making her turn alternately clockwise and anit-clockwise until my brain started doing the same...   :laugh:

Kerry:

I have tried looking at that bloody thing every conceivable way I can (the only way I haven't yet tried is standing on my head!) and to me, she is always only ever moving clockwise.  ::)
