16 Days to 70: Perception


Pareidolia is defined as the brain seeing a pattern in randomness, such as seeing a man in the moon or a face in a tree. I don’t see a man, or a bunny, in the moon, but I can see faces in trees.

Some experts say pareidolia is normal, while other experts say otherwise. Seems like you can say that about nearly anything.

  1. Love that picture, not sure what I'm seeing, but is that a eucalyptus tree? So cool!

    1. Yep, tis an eucalyptus tree. It sat mightily in a parking lot two blocks from the beach.

  2. Since our brains are set up to perceive patterns in things (and recognize people), I would expect that seeing faces in things would be normal. But what do I know?
