Initially, I saw the dancer turning clockwise, indicating that perhaps I am right brain dominant. Later, was wondering if the dancer could actually be turning anti clockwise, and then, I saw it and it did!!!

Incidentally, if you don't see the dancer moving, time to get a newer PC! :P
Seriously, click on the picture and you will see the dancer move.

So, what do you see? Clockwise? Anti clockwise?

I have seen this before.

I noticed the picture will reverse the direction after about 2-3 minutes.

So, don't be fooled.

Hey laymank, there is that change in direction thingy noted. But interestingly enough, at the very same time, my colleagues and I watched it, and we saw different movements...

when i looked at it, i could only see it spinning clockwise so I tried looking out of the corner of my eye towards the right and it still spun clockwise so i looked towards the left out of the corner of my eye and lo and behold it spun anti clockwise however at one point the left and right was fighting and she kind of spun half way and then back again. Try it.

it's a motion gif file that can be created with layers of images, no magic involved. check with any web/graphic designer, they'll be able to share with you more. jangan terpedaya. :)

its actually really simple how it works...its simple animation, and no it does not go one way then switch and go the other way. Its doing the same motion the entire time.
