I know, I saw that too, I think it has something to do with how our brains process visual images. The most famous illusion might have something to do with that.(Link)

It is optical illusion as the detail in the pictures is set up so that depends what are you paying attention to.. the overall picture or the detail.

Makes sense. I was looking at the whole silhouette - big picture. And I hate mathematical logic - Right brained it is!

Are you left-brained or right-brained?

See the dancer turning clockwise or anti-clockwise?

Hey kids:

I'd like to thank everybody who responded to this.

I was hit by RPG shrapnel when I was in VietNam, lost the sight in left eye, hearing in left ear, two ribs & left lung plus the left kidney. In todays "high tech" battlefield medical procedures I'd have a good amount of the use of lung and kidney. Enough of the sob story :-(

I waited and read all the responses before sitting down and seeing what would be in my case... as only have the right eye. B-McGilly was the most helpful right off the bat. Thanks! Looked off to the right and eventually approached from the left to the image, got it to go straightaway - both ways.

Then studied all the other of your-all responses.


ps- Peace.

Yeah, I guess that test makes me more right-brained. I'm not sure if this is another trick or not, but I can't see it going counter-clockwise, instead it seems to slowdown for a few revolutions, then speedup back up for the next few. Weird.

Oh....I saw it go counterclockwise, nice!:D (...the shadow, right?)
