Am I missing something?

This is a classic example of an optical illusion, in which you allegedly can trick your brain into shifting the woman from rotating clockwise to counterclockwise back to clockwise. Problem is, I can't do it. Anyone care to enlighten me on what the trick is? I feel like the esteemed 64Digits can assist me with this plight.

Also, lol it shows her nipples.

From what I saw, it's direction randomly switched somewhere near the end of the animation or i'm crazy and It changed direction magically.

and yes there are nipples. small Caucasian ones though

I can't seem to do it. But out of curiosity, what direction does she appear to be turning to you, Ross?

She's moving clockwise to me.

At first I thought that she was spinning clockwise, and could not see why other people said that she was spinning counter-clockwise. Then I looked at her agian and she was spinning counter-clockwise.

I've seen both. It matters which leg you think is closer to you.

I have seen both directions and think that clockwise is the correct one. When I see her spinning counterclockwise and look at her foot, I automatically see her spinning clockwise because the perspective of her foot clearly suggests that.

I hate these illusions. I try so hard to make myself think it turns the other way, and I can't do it.

Like other people said though, I saw her spinning one way first, looked away, then she was suddenly spinning the other way and I had no idea how I could've possibly thought she was spinning the first.

EDIT: OH MY GOD, I DID IT.
