Jesus Baby

Source: Forgetomori

Good timing for this one as some of us are celebrating the birth of Jesus. I came across a great pareidolia over at forgetomori. Since I found out about them, I have been fascinated by these optical illusions created by images that also look like something else. This is a classic; a photo of a man and woman that also contains the face of a bearded man that looks a bit like our old mate Jesus.

It's amazing, check it out.

Pareidolia

Following up from my last blog about the face blog, I found another great blog that showcases some great pareidolia (things that look like other things). There's some great photos, a few faces here too, though it's more based in the nature. There's the old classic Jesus tortilla/pancake pareidolia, which is actually a good likeness. The face of Mary on a grilled cheese sandwich is also quite good, although I found it hard to take seriously. My favourite ones here are the clouds; there are positively superb. The die-hard cloudwatchers among us will appreciate what a wonderful thing it is to watch clouds go by and take in the awesome detail of the scenes and the characters. I'm not ashamed to say that I love clouds, and these are some of the best cloud photos I've seen. I also like Mother Teresa on a cinnamon bun, Darth Vader in a nebula, and Jesus on the lake. They're all quite good and it's nutritious for the imagination.
