According to Psychology Today: “Pareidoliais a phenomenon wherein people perceive likenesses on random images—such as faces, animals, or objects on clouds and rock formations. It is not a clinical diagnosis nor is it a disorder. The brain has a tendency to assign meaning wherever it can. Seeing a rabbit in the clouds, or an animal (instead of leaves) in the brush is a commonplace experience of pareidolia.”

Have you been stunned by a cloud that reminds you of an animal? Or watching leaves on a tree seemingly create a profile imagefof a human face?

It does happen, and it can be very rewarding to capture the image on your phone or camera, will you see that image or maybe a different image a few days later? It does happen!
