An eye in the leaves!

[hammerette]

I put this photo on Flickr after Photoshop-ing.

Someone noticed it looks like there's an eye in the background!

See it?

That is freaky!

I saw it right off. That is a little on the freaky side. If you look down and to the right from the eye it looks like there's a mouth as well.

Lol, that's pretty creepy looking!

And no one has noticed that big red nose?

Kool! I also see a little bird, just above the leaf in the bottom left.
To me it looks like he,s eating seeds.

This image is a good example of

Pareidolia first used in 1994 by Steven Goldstein[1], describes a psychological phenomenon involving a vague and random stimulus (often an image or sound) being mistakenly perceived as recognizable. Common examples include images of animals or faces in clouds, seeing the man in the moon, and hearing messages on records played in reverse. The word comes from the Greek para- – amiss,

I had a thread with a few examples here.

I saw the little bird first and had to look around a bit for the eye. :thumbup:

Strange..but interesting

Looks like the right eye. Look to the right of it in the image, inside the curve of the holly leaf. It looks like the left eye is winking !!

 

[Aquarium Dreams]

I don't see the winking-- it looks menacing to me. I heart pareidolia!!! Jack lumber, your hands in the fireworks were my favorites. Someone should start a thread devoted to this in photo themes.

I see the bird as well. I think I see the eye. Freaky...
