Claws For The Weekend:Cloud Watching

I don’t know if you saw my last post about Sid the Sloth appearing in the wood grain of a garden table, but I do think that the human mind has a propensity for seeing faces and images in things like wallpaper patterns, and natural formations such as rocks and flowers and clouds.

I recently saw this photograph of a cloud in California that looks like an American Eagle:

Unmistakable, isn’t it?

Then there is this side profile of a noble face above Canada:

The recognition does seem to be a subjective thing, not everybody identifies the same image. See how I gave the attribute of nobility to the cloud-face. Would everybody see that, I wonder? A few years ago, in my local church, people claimed to see the face of Jesus in the large, rough cast aluminium cross that rises high above the neck craned congregation.  Some claimed it looked more like Henry VIII, while some could not see anything at all.

But,

sometimes,

the

identifiable

features

are

just

so

defined

that

everybody

can

see

them.

Uncanny isn’t it ?

Have a great weekend everybody. Keep an eye out for a Jackdaw in your cornflakes.

See you on the flip side.
