Pareidolia is a psychological phenomenon that predisposes humans to decipher a face in patterns or inanimate objects. Some might say that it is evidence of paranoia, or a fear of being judged. I see faces all of the time when I am out photographing random patterns.

This one called to me as a peering face emerging from a sponge patterned lava boulder. Watching for what? Any answer would lead to many paths. Since we all return to the earth perhaps it whispers, “See you later.”

This was my neighborhood in the early 1970’s. It was a rough environment, one that hones you to endure challenges that will attempt to block your way in the future.

Shot with my first real camera, a Minolta SRT-101, I was learning to process film in my kitchen. Decades later I printed it in a way that shows what I felt.
