You look at them... They look right back at you! (but do they bite?)

Today we are going to explore face-like patterns in inanimate objects, and will urge you to get out and take a few pictures of your own: find a weird face in something that's not supposed to have any faces, take a picture and send it to us! Even mundane, everyday objects and often-visited places can reveal a face, if looked at a different angle...

This part of a Soviet Lunar Craft Lander (more info) looks like something out of the "Robots" movie:

Architectural structures can reveal faces that stare at us from buildings, bridges and electric meters... let's start with the happy ones:

Faces everywhere! Is there a room in the world without a face hidden somewhere?? -






Pareidolia phenomenon is well-known, even causing havoc in some religious circles (remember the toast with a likeness of Jesus sold on eBay for a tidy sum?). But really, it's pretty easy to find some drooping eyes and a crooked mouth just about anywhere:





If you touch some of the dials, you get the weirdest feeling that you're poking your fingers into their eyes...

Pipes! Pipes are usually hungry and mean-looking:



"Screaming" faces seem to appear more often the "smiling" ones:




Fearsome Toothsome:



This face is quite intentional, of course (located at Ghibli Museum). Such wonderful manhole lids can be often seen in Japan, where it became a kind of urban art:

Dog snouts! -

Gothic expressions and ghosts:



Very curious ones found in nature:






Snow faces are numerous and easy to find:



This cactus is not Photoshopped, according to the info we have (although hardly anything else is known about the origin of this picture):

If you can't see a face, then paint a weird face somewhere... why not?

Making faces with painted fingers:



... and with painted lips:





... even with toilet paper:



Painting inside a tea cup can lead to interesting results:

This is perhaps the most curious one... was it intentional? Let us know in the comments (I personally think that it has been enhanced in Photoshop):

If this collection wets your appetite for locating and photographing weird faces in unexpected objects and places - then perhaps you'd like to check out this site, dedicated to this activity - Faces in Places. They constantly updated with new faces, they've also published a book, and have extensive archives.
