I See Faces and other things…

FACES and…

As kids, we likely all lay on our backs in the grass looking at the clouds finding faces, animals and other objects at one time or another.

What about with standing stones? Well, yup, I see faces there, too.

facesDo you see a face in this stone at Stonehenge?

facesHow about now after I draw the outline of the mouth, eyes, nose and chin? I should have picked a different color other than black because the contrast on the rock tends to overpower the painted line.

Since my attempt with black to outline didn’t achieve the result I wanted, I went back in and outlined it in white. Does this make it easier to see?

Maybe this is the face of the troll who lived under the bridge in the Norweigian fairy tale, The Three Billy Goats Gruff?

facesOr what about this stone along the avenue near Avebury?

facesLooks a handsome fellow despite his large nose. But look at him from another angle… what do you see?

facesFrom this angle, it looks like a horse’s head. Perhaps the knight piece on a chessboard.

Did you see any of these faces?

  1. Fascinating. Most of the time I look at rocks or stones as just that: rocks or stones. Yes, the white shows up nicely. And I saw the horses head before you mentioned it. 🙂

  2. Thanks for stopping by, Beverly! I’m willing to bet you won’t look at rocks or stones quite the same way anymore. 😉

  3. Interesting Melanie ! I see the faces in these rocks specially the first one !
