Red sandstone tenements on Dumbarton Road in Glasgow. If you look carefully about half way down the block, you'll see a face on it (made up of two round windows and the chimney). I've always loved this feature. Seeing faces in inanimate objects like this is known as pareidolia.

woops accidentally did a #pareidolia while messing around with IFS fractals
It's (z^5 + c)/(z^5 - c) & (z^3 + z + c), with no escape threshold
Lucky Luke contemplating a (bullet?) hole, while riding Jolly Jumper, somewhere in the Wild West Jezero, starring:
• the Turret's shadow, as Lucky Luke
• #Perseverance, as Jolly Jumper
• #Ingenuity (not pictured) as Rin Tin Can (a.k.a. Rantanplan)
On sol 3966 (yestersol), the Curiosity Rover's dust removal tool (DRT) rotated a small plate of rock. This, according to @doug_ellison, makes the rover planners the first ever martian DJs 😆
I currently have a pronounced #pareidolia effect where I see birds and bird shapes everywhere. They are magically appearing in my painting.
Today there is a #heron added, and even yesterday's crop of the painting I noticed a peacock (her leg in purple.)
The famous so-called face on #Mars isn't actually a face. It's a mountain with features and shadows that make it look like a face from certain perspectives. Our interpretation of it as a face is an example of #pareidolia—a form of #apophenia—which is a phenomenon in which we perceive faces in otherwise abstract features. It's a quirk of the human mind based on our tendency to seek out patterns in chaos.
