The term “Pareidolia” is used to describe the occurrence of seeing humanoid faces in unusual places, like in a tree trunk or in the clouds. Here are the Many Faces Of Mother Nature, as seen by a person suffering from pareidolia
#10 Happy Leaf
This little guy looks as happy as a clam. We know this is a leaf in this picture, but the phrase refers to a “clam,” so we went with it. If we fell off of a tree and we were now free to fly around and do as we please, we would probably be just as happy as this leaf too.
#9 The Stone Thinker
Here is a great photo of another “Thinking Man.” In this image, you can see the distinct nose, eyes, and lips in the rock formation. The connected rock underneath the “head” makes it look like this structure is thinking hard. About what, we don’t know, but being around for millions of years means you have to think of something at some point, or life is going to be really boring.
#8 Deadly Rock
This rock looks like it’s had some much better days. Just look at the face in this picture, the last time we saw something this close to death, it was the leaf from #13! This rock looks like it just drank poison and it doesn’t look like he’s going to make it.
#7 An Apple Faced Baby
It’s a little gross to see rotting fruit, but for the purpose of this video, we have to add this picture. You can see that a worm or some kind of insect burrowed into the apple, giving it a pair of “eyes.” Combine that with the odd shape and the bottom core shaped to look like a mouth, and you have a full blown apple that looks like a baby. It’s a baby faced apple. How strange.
#6 Mr. Cool BBQ
You only have to glance at this picture for a split second before you realize this is the coolest BBQ on the block. Not because the whole thing is covered in snow but because he’s got on some stunner shades and a cool grin.
#5 Shadow Face
This shadow of the assumed nearby tree creates a perfect male face against the garage door. We know that shadows change constantly with the amount of light involved, etc, but we wonder if this same face shows up day after day. As long as the tree remains semi constant, as in it keeps the majority of its leaves, this face, in theory, should be back tomorrow.
#4 Old Lady Parsnip
After seeing this picture, we are rather glad we didn’t come to possess this old lady parsnip. As you can see, this root vegetable looks exactly like the face of a witch! We’re pretty sure this is how people go about getting themselves cursed, so we would be leaving this thing at the market.
#3 Tiny Tree Dancer
This example of pareidolia is almost too good to be true. The branches of this tiny tree make it look like a dancer, dancing ballet. This is our favorite example of pareidolia to date; it just looks so cool.
#2 Clouds Above A Volcano
The clouds sitting above the volcano in this picture make it look like the second coming is here. You might think that this cloudy face looks like just a face, but there are plenty of others who think this is the face of Jesus. What do you think?
#1 The Smiling Sunset
Now, the picture you see here is just about one of the most iconic pictures showing pareidolia. As you can clearly see, the three birds flying off into the setting sun come together to form a smiling face. Mother nature truly seems to be a happy soul. Here’s the proof.
