If the image goes clockwise - right, if counter clockwise - left.

Apparently if you concentrate hard enough you can reverse the direction.

Most people see anti-clockwise (i.e. left brain). And so do I.

Left brain:
  • Uses logic
  • Detail oriented
  • Facts rule
Right brain:
  • Uses feeling
  • "Big picture" oriented
  • Imagination rules

It seems to periodically change the direction in which it spins to me.

I've seen this before. It takes a bit of concentration but after a while you can change the direction of the spinning at will.

First flash was counter-clockwise, then it settled into a clockwise rotation for me. No face of Jesus, sorry.

It was clockwise when I first looked. Then I scrolled down to read and saw only the feet and she was counter clockwise. Now I only see counter clockwise.

That about sums me up... a brief glimps of the right brain and then I am totally left brained rolleyes.gif

looking at it normally it goes anti-clockwise but just discovered I can reverse it at will by looking at it sideways (head tilted 90% to right, no effect to left)- bizzare

LOL.

I was thinking Tales of the Unexpected.

And then there's the Benny Hill version.

Majority of the time clockwise. But I can make it change direction to counter-clockwise, though it stays clockwise longest.

No matter how much I try it is always spinning clockwise for me. I guess I must have a crazy-ass imagination. blink.gif

It went clockwise for me but after staring at it, it reversed without me trying to reverse it, but then it reversed pretty quickly back to clockwise.

Here is another one. Apparantly if you look at the picture long enough you can see a giraffe.
