Optical Illusions

If you see this lady turning in clockwise you are using your right brain. If you see it the other way, you are using left brain. Some people do see both ways, but most people see it only one way. See if you can make her go one way and then the other by shifting the brain's current. BOTH DIRECTIONS CAN BE SEEN Most individuals have a distinct preference for one of these styles of thinking. Some, however, are more whole-brained and equally adept at both modes.

It seems like she is blatantly going one way at first, but focus away from her and use peripheral vision to decide which way she is rotating and look back, and you can change it.

Weird.

That was weird... for ages I saw it going anti-clockwise, then I looked away and it started going clock-wise, then I looked away and it changed again.

That's pretty cool, think Ive seen it before, takes a while but I can see it either way and change it every other spin, gets a bit confusing tho lol.

The only way I can make her change direction is focusing on her shadow

If I take my glasses off I can't really tell which way she's going?

I can only see clockwise, because that's the way she is quite clearly spinning. Rubbish.
