My brother forwarded this to me, I thought it was really cool. Since I’m not very much an email-forwarding person, I suppose I could share this with more people by publishing it here. Have fun! (For me, I saw her spinning clockwise at first, after practicing hard, I could see her spinning the other way round too!)
Do you see the dancer turning clockwise or anti-clockwise? If clockwise, then you use more of the right side of the brain and vice versa. Most of us would see the dancer turning anti-clockwise though you can try to focus and change the direction; see if you can do it.

At first I could only see clockwise…then all of a sudden after a blink, i could see the anticlockwise turn. And then seconds later i can switch back and forth. Cooool!
