Believe it or not, these circles are completely white
"Rotating rays - The outer ring of rays appears
to rotate clockwise while the
inner one is counterclockwise
"Uzumaki ampan"
Concentric gray circles appear to
be spirals.
“The Autumn Color Swap” – The Inset appears to move
"A bulge"
The floor appears to bulge out,
though this image consists of only
squares.
"Rollers“
Rollers appear to rotate without effort. On the other hand, they appear to rotate in
the opposite direction when observers see this image keeping blinking.

personally think the ‘tricks’ on youtube are slightly more interesting)
