DO YOU SEE A FACE?!!
Many people tell me they see a “man’s face in the clouds” in this one. One fellow even told me that he took my photo to his psychiatrist because he thought he was “seeing a face” as well, and couldn’t believe his own eyes! (LOL!) Anyhow,
his doctor agreed it looked like a face to him too, but also assured him it was only the clouds:)..

    This is just fabulous, the clouds are amazing! I have been looking at this for quite a while and still can’t see any face!!

    Hi Van ! I would never have seen your reply. Only the reply button stuff comes up on my side of the Activity Monitor.
    But yeah, I’ve “seen” faces in clouds, but never taken a photo of them. That would be great to have.

  • van049 replied

    Hi James!! Thank you so much for your fantastic comments!! I am sure that in time you will capture some neat “faces” in the clouds; it is almost inevitable!! I have thousands of photos I have taken, and most of them are either skyscapes or of the clouds, with at least 15% of them having what looks like “faces” in or around them!!!xx

    It is wonderful when we capture God’s art which really everything we see. I see a face, but not sure if it is the one you are seeing. Beautiful capture Van…

  • van049 replied
