Pareidolia: a hidden challenge

Gandhi



Hello, I'm  pareidolia Gandhi. I'm not really here, i'm an illusion, or misconception.  Much like this picture of a devil,



Pareidolia has been used to explain away such things as the Loch Ness Monster, and Mother Theresa baked in tortillas. It is even used in psychological tests such as the Rorschach Test, where every ink blot is your mother's vagina. Or even in  this picture of a giant, floating, Jimmy Hill.



Gandhi would like to see your own  examples of  pareidolia, such as the ones
here

Is it all just smoke and mirrors?


Purple Tentacle

Not sure if this is quite appropriate, since it was originally from the "fake photos" thread, but:

International Scotsman's spirit attends a Darkness gig. It's all cymbalic.

Britain's Prime Minister Tony Blair is seen through the viewfinder of a television camera as he gives a speech before a question and answer session at Kaimhill school in Aberdeen May 14, 2001. A poll for the Independent newspaper had reduced Labour's lead over the Conservatives to 14 percent, down between two and six points on several weekend surveys. REUTERS/Ian Waldie

Either it's real pareidolia, or he's used a 3-D program. Render as water if it's available, or glass.

Quote from: "fanny splendid"Either it's real pareidolia.

Yes it is real. Sorry guys I never did that. Wouldn't want to take credit for something mother nature did, she can get mighty pissed off sometimes.

Quote from: "fanny splendid"Top left hand corner.


That's not the Jesus I saw!

On the left-centre of the picture, there is another "Jesus" looking towards the top left of the picture.  He even has a crown of what could be thorns!

If no-one else can see it, I'll circle it in "Paint" and send it to anyone who will host it.

fanny splendid

I can't see it my self, but if you circle it, then go here, you can use the guest function to upload the picture.

In the top right hand corner, choose 'add photo'.

Our man lucifer is in there also.   Right centre, facing down with his chin tucked in.


Tokyo Sexwhale



OK, I've traced round it in blue, and on reflection it could be Neptune or Poseidon rather than Jesus.  But then again that other Jesus could be Jeremy Beadle.

My "Jesus" is looking right and upwards.

Funky Gibbon

Is it me, or does Jesus have one hell of a cock?

fanny splendid



Also, in the lower left hand quarter of Tokyo's picture, there is a bearded face looking straight at you.

Looks like the popemobile's got a dodgy sump gasket.

Cerys

I've looked and looked, but all I can see is an oily puddle.  Pity me.

Meanwhile, I've found Jesus and replaced him with Hendrix -



PS - fanny, that Blue Morris is brilliant!

Edited cos I can't spell.

Tokyo Sexwhale

That's MY Jesus!

Although it could also be Hendrix too I suppose.  Or the front cover of the Rage Against the Machine album.

There you go, in all his slick holiness.
