helene_t Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 I see it as clockwise no matter which part of my visual field I put her in. Not surprisingly, I come out as right-brain dominated in those tests all the time. My roommate says she changes direction all the time. She's not a bridge player, though.

hrothgar Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 I see it as clockwise no matter which part of my visual field I put her in.

Ditto I'm trying to force myself to see it move counter clockwise with no luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke warm Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 to me it's obviously counter clockwise :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotShot Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 clockwise .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al_U_Card Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 Initially counter-clockwise,..... to get her to reverse direction, look to the side of the image and allow her to go out of focus.....she will switch directions.

PassedOut Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 Counter-clockwise, and maddeningly resistant to changing directions... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pclayton Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 Clockwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finally17 Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 My experience when I first saw it a couple of months ago was that I could not get it to appear CCW, no matter what manipulation I did of my eyes (unfocusing, closing one or the other, etc etc). I showed it to someone else to whom I had to swear it had never changed directions before she believed me. She was convinced that it had actually changed directions. I did manage to get it to appear CCW by covering up the top half of the picture with another window. Then with some focusing it seemed to spin CCW, but it would quickly switch back. I never managed to see the entire picture appear CCW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finally17 Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 Checked again (should have before I posted) and still can't get it to appear CCW without my posted manipulation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nige1 Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 Clockwise most of the time. :)Anticlockwise the rest. :)But long-term viewing will make you go blind! :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwnn Posted December 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 I was expecting something like: IMO: CW_: 8CCW_: 6Both_: 4 :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherdano Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 I don't get it. How can you make sense of the shadow when you see her turning clockwise? (And how many of the respondents in this poll mixed up clockwise and anti-clockwise?) ((And how many fell for the optical illusion suggesting that this is a naked dancing girl??)) :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Dodgy Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 Ack. initially I saw anti-clockwise (and voted thus), but with a slight tilt of my head was easily able to see her going clockwise. But no matter how I try I can't get her to change back! ((And how many fell for the optical illusion suggesting that this is a naked dancing girl??)) :)I'm sure I can see nipple. So apparently I'm logical until such time as I observe a prominent mammary protuberance at which point I become appreciative and fantasy-based. No great surprises there ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jocdelevat Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 good one. i tried to see it clockwise and couldn't. her leg in the air is always moving from 6 towards 3 which is anticlockwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macaw Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 anti-clockwise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cascade Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 I can see her rotating in both directions and alternating back and forth. I am not sure which direction is clockwise - do we assume we are lying on the floor or somehow attached to ceiling? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winstonm Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 Tell us the truth, Helene - which direction were you really turning? ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helene_t Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 Oh yes everything is relative, depending on what you have been smoking you will turn (counter)clockwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwnn Posted December 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 I can see her rotating in both directions and alternating back and forth. I am not sure which direction is clockwise - do we assume we are lying on the floor or somehow attached to ceiling? that's horrible Wayne that's what I'm getting now ;) horrible! ~175 degrees left, then ~175 right, :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helene_t Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 Oh sorry Winston, now I understand what you mean. If you can see the ITV gameshow you can watch me as TV star in january. Not sure if I will be dancing though.Hopefully not naked in any case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenberg Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 I can see her rotating in both directions and alternating back and forth. I am not sure which direction is clockwise - do we assume we are lying on the floor or somehow attached to ceiling? This was what I saw. As her leg passes through the forward position and then extends to the side, she decides to reverse directions so that her leg comes out front again instead of moving back. Perhaps my left and right brains are at war with each other? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helene_t Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 Perhaps my left and right brains are at war with each other? That is the normal condition. We subconsciously generate competing interpretations of what we see. Often a single interpretation wins the raise for the conscious level, though.
