Amazing Peripheral Drift Illusion

Click to Enlarge

This has got to be the best Peripheral Drift illusion out there. It is called Rotating Snakes and was created by Professor Akiyoshi Kitaoka, Ritsumeikan University, Japan.

To see that the picture is not actually moving at all, focus on one particular area.  That area will stop moving while everything around it seems to continue to rotate.  Move to another area and the same thing holds true.
