Pareidolia is a more generalized term for seeing patterns in random data. That's what this face on the mountains is technically called. While I like science, the term comes off as dismissive and I don't like that, because you can SEE the face, right?

All kidding aside, I have a trove of pareidoilia images, because my wife found another face and then I started seeing them all over the place. This one, though, anyone should be able to make out.

Enjoy!

I can look at clouds all day. In fact, I've done it on more than one occasion. The subtle lines and motions, the imagery you can see -- totally worth

Trying out another camera for the first time, really. A Canon. This is an image of a large Mesquite tree near our pond, reflected at sunset.
