The miracle of vision is, without any doubt, one of the greatest gifts we have, and something we shouldn't take for granted. We see familiar shapes and faces everywhere we look. Even our eyes can differentiate about 10 million different colors. Sometimes our eyes play a trick on us and we see an oddly shaped inanimate object with a face. This is called pareidolia - and humans appear to have evolved this psychological trick as a way to keep a lookout for danger. Here's an interesting fact: women seem to experience pareidolia more than men! Keep your eyes peeled as you look through these photos, and see how long it takes you to spot the hidden face looking right back at you.
Is It A Lady or A Muppet?
It took us a few seconds to get the "ohhhhhh we see it" moment. It really messed with us for a second.
This seems like Elmo's cool albino cousin, right? We can bet that she is looking for cookies in her handbag.
So Fairy Tales Do Exist
They do look like fairy tales, but we think there is a resemblance to a flower version of Groot (from the American superhero film Guardians of the Galaxy).
It also reminds us of Alice in Wonderland when she's tiny in the flower garden. By the way, these are Hollyhock dolls.
Steve, You're Not Funny
The doggo is like, "Hey Steve, people don't say it to your face that they don't find you funny at all."
As we know that bananas have opinions, it is obvious that the doggo and the banana do not approve of it. Hey, if the dog eats it, then will it be cannibalism?
Not An Alien Fossil
We want to believe that it is an alien fossil, but it seems like a pebble. The Truth is out there (it is an X-Files reference).
We're pretty sure that some alien conspiracy theorist is going to pay $10k or more for this thing.
Two Rocks Look Like A Mother Breastfeeding Her Newborn Child
You can't make these things up because Mother Nature is the best artist of all. This is Mother Nature at its absolute finest.
What really amazes us is that it is more than just a passing resemblance. It looks like it was actually sculpted!
Heyyyyyyy....Let Us Out!!!!
Are they terrified because of the sausage party? This person had an opportunity to let them go out and they didn't use it!
We don't know about you, but this is pretty terrifying. This can even scare a vegetarian.
Human, Why?
This person pulled the door handle off and what was left of the door was as shocked as he was. Legend has it that there is still a person stuck in the bathroom.
Maybe the door handle wanted to say, "I've been waiting 20 years for someone to do that. I can finally breathe."
Do Dragons BARK?
If you want to know if dragons BARK, we WOODn't know the answer because it is not possible to know.
This person has awakened a forest dragon. We hope he is prepared for this boss fight. You must be wondering, "This is too much epicness for today." But wait, there is more to come on our list.
Pigeon Poops Portrait of Itself On A Leaf
You will be surprised to know that the pigeon who pooped a portrait of itself on a leaf is known as Picasso of pigeons. In fact, it is responsible for many paintings on cars, roads, pavements, windows, and even humans.
After seeing this, we don't want to hear any human claim they are the only good painters. Nevertheless, it is a "crappy" portrait.
A Lion Wearing Sunglasses On The Belly of This Grasshopper
That's one cool lion. If you look closely, you will notice that the lion is also wearing a coat with a tall collar and a green tie.
Moreover, there's no grasshopper there, that's the crown of this majestic cool king. Mother Nature, you just keep on surprising us.
An Exhausted Chair
After how 2020 was, we all can relate to whatever this chair is going through. This is our spirit furniture.
This level of exhaustion does not have an English word. Sometimes, chairs need to sit down and relax as well. So we feel sorry for it in some weird way.
Rust That Looks Like A Cute Doggo
At first, we thought someone drilled holes for their doggo to see through, but it is just rust that looks like a doggo wearing a party hat.
So, we can say it is Rusty the dog. Our suggestion to this person would be to pull out that tile and frame it.
We See Sid From Ice Age (Film) And Nothing Else
Most of us know about Scrat, the saber-toothed squirrel, who is acorn-obsessed. It wouldn't have surprised us to see Scrat here. But we didn't expect to see Sid.
We love Sid and it looks exactly like him. Mother Nature seems like a fan of Sid as well.
Behold, The Great White Lizard
How often you get to see the snow on top of a mountain that looks like a giant white lizard? It is a spectacular sight.
You can say it is a blizzard lizard. Who knows, the lizard might be exhausted after climbing that mountain.
Elephant Cupcake
This overflowing cupcake wasn't meant to look like a sad elephant, but we're glad it did. Let's call it Muffin.
So, it means the task to make a cupcake failed SUCCESSFULLY. If someone could do that on purpose every time, it could be the next trendy thing.
Scared Switches
These poor things look like they have seen a really scary movie. Maybe they're afraid of the dark.
Or maybe they got caught doing something crazy. One of them is like, "Hey Jerry, do you think we're in trouble?"
Driftwood That Looks Like A Dragon's Head
Hey, this is almost too perfect. We're pretty sure Mother Nature created it because we humans can't achieve such perfection.
It looks like a sleeping dragon that might be affectionate (but it is a 50/50 chance).
Lord Voldemort Of Potatoes
This ashy potato looks like it is done with life. It resembles a lot with Lord Voldemort from Harry Potter. Does it burn when Harry touches it?
It is the one that shall not be eaten. By the way, it does look like the potato wants to sleep.
Chomp
Oh boy, this is what we call a real jawbreaker. We don't know why this troll wants to eat the moon. Guess it's bye-bye, moon.
We do hope the person who took this photo frames it and hangs it in their home. It is one spectacular shot.
That's A Snail Egg
This boiled egg exploded while cooking and now looks like a snail. Now don't say that the chicken had an affair with a snail.
After a second look, we are pretty sure that Mama chicken had a fling with a snail. So which came first, the egg or the snail?
A Goddess In This Orange
Praise the sun and ask for permission before eating this orange as there's a goddess in it.
All hail the goddess of oranges! Bow down to her or orange juice will be squirted in your eyes! If you don't believe it, you might agree that Starbucks needs to consider this new logo idea.
If 'Finally I Am Having A Day Off' Had A Face.
This car seems pretty relaxed and happy about the snowstorm. Cars deserve a day off as well, so we feel good for this one.
On second thought, it resembles Jack Nicholson's character in the hit horror movie The Shining.
To Infinity and Beyond
Forget Superman as the big bad superhero is in the town. This one doesn't even need a cape.
But what really won our hearts is the innocent smile on its face. It is ready to face the criminals and most probably get badly beaten up.
Sorting Cone
It is The Sorting Hat's cousin, The Sorting Cone. Construction workers use it to see what task they'd be best at.
Harry Potter fans immediately would have guessed that this looks a lot like the Sorting Hat. The hat magically determined which of the four schools houses each new student belongs most to.
A T-Rex Shaped Cactus
What movies and cartoons have shown us is wrong. Tyrannosauruses (T-Rex) are not always in an angry mood. Look at this bad boy. This brings the Google T-Rex game to a whole other level.
This T-Rex is as happy as anyone can get. It is like, "Hey hoomans, I'll poke you all to death." Another thing we noticed is that this T-Rex has been on a strict diet.
Bubbles Formed a Little Cat Shape
This cat breed is considered one of the most rarest in the world. It is called TeaCat (yeah, we're not making this up).
The cat super looks shocked. Our strong guess is that it is because it's tail fell off.
Shadow That Looks Like a Man's Head
In Montana, this lone peak and big sky presented an amazing scene as the shadow looks like a man's head. If you look closely, you can also see a baby and a grandfather.
If you say it is Voldemort (baby edition), we will tell you that this mountain has nothing to fear but itself.
This Stick Belongs To A Doggo
We like to imagine a dog randomly finds this stick and notices its face on the stick. Just imagine how excited the doggo would be.
It is a Dogwood without a Bark. Or who knows it is an old wizard's magic stick and he has named it "Fetch."
This is Pole Dancing in Its Truest Form
One wonders which song was on when one of the poles was like, "Let's have this one last dance to remember."
Something heavy metal? Maybe the song was, "Unchain my heart, baby let me be," or "Unchained Melody."
Cat On A Doggo's Chest
The pattern on this dog's chest looks a lot like a cat mid-sneeze. Bless you, dog chest kitty. It also looks like the cat tasted lemon.
The dog is like, "Can't you buy some hair dye or something? It's embarrassing in front of my friends."
An Orchid That Looks Like An Eagle
These are called pink moth orchids if anyone's interested! Some people may say that it looks like Pokémon.
It is so beautiful and strange how Mother Nature can make a flower look like a majestic eagle.
Alien Pickle
The bottom picture makes this a winner. We don't blame her because we wouldn't want that thing to touch us either.
If this alien baby pickle makes you feel scared of pickles, you are not alone. We're absolutely petrified of them now.
What Did It See?
We may never know what it saw but one thing we're certain about is that it has a running nose ever since. This is how some people's noses are during springtime.
Did it see a big-sized coronavirus? Given that it is in the bathroom, we're guessing that it has seen everything.
Guess She's Having Twins
Hey, we feel so sorry for this person but we laughed so hard at her knees. They do look creepy but funny as well.
We never knew we needed this, and now we will start looking at everyone’s knees. That is something you can't unsee.
Is It CROC a Cola Or GATOR-ade?
This person's drink looks like a hungry crocodile is looking at them. We're not sure if this is Pareidolia and not something real inside.
This is just too much energy in one drink. If it is in Australia, you never know.
That's A Pure-Bread
If you find anything unique at a restaurant that you can eat, don't consume it. Save it and someday you might become a millionaire. There must be some dog lover out there who might buy this pure-bread. Hopefully, this person didn't eat it.
You can say it looks like ROTIweiler or a Dobbernaan (please excuse our excessive use of puns).
Face In A Drink
The ice in the glass looks like a face. This is super creepy. We can give you so many references here, but we won't.
The truth is that we are feeling a bit scared. This is the kind of thing that stops you from drinking chilled coke or any other beverage – which is beneficial in hindsight though.
A Rock That Looks Like A Shark
This person found a rock that looks a lot like a shark or maybe a shark that looks a lot like a rock. We still can't determine it.
Even if it has no history or any relation to sharks, we believe it belongs in a museum!
Stupid Flanders
This is so hilarious. It is a perfect Simpsons reference! ‘Hallo, yes this is Gregory, can you censor my street?'
It is like wearing nothing at all... nothing at all... nothing at all... nothing at all.
Everyone Just Calm Down
First of all, this is not a scene from the movie Revenge of the Evil Chicken Monster! We wish they would make a movie like that. It could also be used as an ad for vegetarianism
If they paint it green, it will look like Slimer from Ghostbusters. Paint it red and it’s an angry crab from The Little Mermaid.
Cookie Monster, Is That You?
We have a special respect for the person who took this photo. They climbed down a very dangerous and muddy hill to take a blurry photo of the Cookie Monster along the Mississippi River.
The Cookie Monster is like, "Heyyyyy, no pictures man! If you still want to take my photos, then WHERE ARE MY COOKIES?"
Floor of Dogs
Now, that is something worth framing for all time. We absolutely love it. It looks more like one of those old doctors with the masks, no wonder the dog is upset.
The doggo is like, "Who are you? Are you going to take my hooman away?"
Slippers Laughing After Making An Evil Plan
These slippers look like they're up to no good. Why do they remind us so much of the Grinch?
They seemed to have created an evil master plan to make their owner fall and break a leg or something.
That's Too Much Drinking
This guy in the Martini looks like he had too much to drink. It might also be that he has been impaled in the head.
At first, we thought it was a voodoo doll. The Evil Martini Monster finally caught up with the little fellow.
Two Bearded Men
There is nothing special about this photo. We just wanted to mess with your head. It is a photo of two bearded men wearing turtle hats.
And we forgot to tell you that these men are judging you. This is actually a very neat and unique photograph of a perspective we've never seen before.
Snoopy in Coffee
After this person poured milk into their coffee, they found Snoopy on the doghouse under the moon.
Seeing something nostalgic like this is amazing. Snoopy in coffee. Does anybody else see him on a helicopter?
Poor Suitcase
This person took a photo of their daughter's suitcase that looked really upset when it was left on the stairs. Maybe the suitcase transforms itself into a fairy at night, who knows.
Only a stone-hearted person would laugh on this because we believe that suitcases have feelings as well. Don't hurt those poor souls, please.
A Rock Climber Cactus
This cactus is doing a little rock climbing and trying to get to its friends. He is like, "Hey don't leave me alone."
It seems like the cactus is a fan of the movie Mission Impossible, especially Tom Cruise. After all, it is doing rock climbing without any protective gear.
A Great Metallic Concert
Although there was kind of a tinny sound, it was a wonderful concert. All credit goes to the band members and maestro Jack.
It was a great performance! They crushed it. However, they did RECYCLE some of the old songs.
Count Dracula Is That You?
This is one suspicious vampire-looking car. Or you could say that this is how you wake up from a hangover in the morning.
We can also see Darth Vader in the other car. These two would make a perfect duo.
