What are the perceptual consequences of this rotation of

Listing's plane?

The two figures show what it looks like from inside the left eye.

In one of the figures, Listing's plane rotates temporally by as much as the eyes converge.

In the other Listing's plane stays fixed.

Can you guess which is which?

To check change your viewpoint to "in front" of the eyes.
