Clockwise or Counterclockwise?
http://www.news.com.au/perthnow/stor...l?from=mostpop
Just for fun (don't worry about whether this is an accurate test of right or left brainness, whether brainness is a word, and whether being left-brained or right-brained makes you more logical or artsy or vice versa) which way do you see the ballerina turning? Can you make her turn either direction?
I see counter clockwise only.

That's pretty cool. At first I saw counter-clockwise but after reading some of the text and then looking back I saw it turning clockwise.

I still can't see counter-clockwise. Maybe I have problems.

I saw it going both ways. I can't 'do' anything to get it to switch, but I looked away and one time when I looked back it was going the other way.

I see clockwise usually at first but can usually switch back and forth, though this one is much harder to switch the perception on than others like it for me.
EDIT: Arg, I can't get her to switch now! My left brain is broken!

I stared at it for a minute or so. I see only counter-clockwise movement.

I saw clockwise first...then closed and opened it again ....it first looked like it was going clockwise then I looked at her foot and it started to go counter.

The key is the foot and the shadow of the foot

Yeah, if you concentrate on just the shadow of the foot and the foot you can switch more easily.

I see clockwise.
If I kind of watch just out of my peripheral vision I can sort of sense a counter-clockwise movement, but as soon as I focus attention it's clockwise no matter how hard I try and see otherwise.
The Right Brain Functions list pretty much sums me up too. Crazy.

I see primarily clockwise but when concentrating on the foot, I can see both.

The picture is switching. It's an illusion.

Yeah I think so as well, it just seemed to switch out of no wear for me from counter-clockwise to clockwise

And it always seems to switch at the precise moment when her leg is in the foreground, obscuring the switch. It's just a trick.
