Which direction do you see the lady spinning?

I can actually make her spin in either direction, but she tends towards clockwise.

Clockwise for me. My 10yr old son on the Autistic Spectrum was laughing because she was
changing direction rapidly in his view.

Naturally clockwise for me, but after staring at her foot for a few seconds, she began rotating ccw.

It started CW for me, but I can see the switch and watch it in the other direction as well. My 8 year old boy (Autism Spectrum) saw it rapidly changing directions as well Swoop. Interesting :)

Duuude that's hard to do, but I did it. Make her switch back and forth every time her foot makes it to the left or right. It almost hurts my brain.

Naturally I saw clockwise first, but it could've been random.

I'd be curious to see what handedness you guys are that are looking at the image - I'm seeing her clockwise, and am left handed. I've tried seeing it ccw but haven't managed it yet (possibly due to having a few glasses of wine first? lol).

Saw it CW first, then put my focus off to the side and saw her CCW... after playing with a tad i can get her to change if i blink when her legs cross each other almost everytime..

Im dominate right handed.. played most sports growing up lefty though.
