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.”

Since relocating from the east to the high desert of Southern California, I have become appreciative of the desert landscape. Its solitude is calming to me. Nonetheless, human encroachment leaves stains as far out as the desert. This rocky formation is now marked by a paintball gunfight. I captured this image before its defilement.
