Yes, there seems to be a few "previously unseen by me" images going around at the mo. This one had a ball inside the torus last time I searched but it seems to have disappeared from this view:

Here's a version of the one I was thinking of. The ball is larger, the surface patterns are different, the watermark doesn't help and the effect is not as good. Heigh ho.

Actually this last one does seem in motion whereas the previous does not, to me.

Unfortunately I haven't got a big monitor. Just a laptop and a phone,and the only one that moves is post 8, and that only on the laptop.

Ambient lighting seems to have an effect. The coloured images only seem to move in a well-lit room. Also, increased viewing distance seems to help. Otherwise,

There's more than meets the eye here too. There are 12 black dots in the image but your brain won't let you see them all at once.

Stupid brain!!!
She battled through in every kind of tribulation,
She revelled in adventure and imagination.
She never listened to no hater, liar,
Breaking boundaries and chasing fire.
Oh, my my! Oh my, she flies!
