Do You See A Face?

This is a picture taken from an overhead video of Hurricane Matthew over Haiti. It is all over the internet. This picture took the internet by storm, pun intended. Is it a demon? Is it a skull? Is it the Grinch who stole Christmas?
Do you even see a face? Of course you do. Do you want to know why?
The human brain is programmed in utero for face recognition. Probably so that when those strange beings get so close to us when we are born, we don't have a heart attack and die right then.
We can look at almost anything that is not a solid color, and find a face. Faces in clouds, faces in wood flooring, faces in abstract art....They are everywhere. You can probably look around you right now and find a 'face' somewhere. It is our design.
So was an evil demon laughing at Haiti as Matthew swept through with his destruction? NO. This was ONE still shot from days and days of video that our human brain recognizes eyes, nose, and mouth. Just like it is supposed to do.
Have you seen other faces?

The only face that scares me is the one in the mirror.

This pic and somewhere the heading too is a deja vu. But the content makes it a little bit different.

@cindiowens No... not me. 
But definitely seen before.
I don't think there's a prohibition anymore on posting 'similar' topics...

@cindiowens ....You can probably find other prints of it and get a bigger picture. It is quite a popular picture after the storm.

In clouds sometimes. What makes me laugh is when people see Jesus in a tortilla chip or something like that.

I sure do see a face - kinda creepy, eh?!
Oh yah, we see faces everywhere. The kids will point them out (as many kids will do) - clouds, wood knots, gum droppings on sidewalks - they can be found in a lot of strange places!@cindiowens (5120)

They sure can. I think it is fun, and sometimes creepy, to look for them.

I used to live in a house with paneled walls. There were faces everywhere. Especially at night when the shadows played on them.

It gave me goosebumps. Actually, my colleague got in a motor accident before. He was okay now. God is good for keeping him safe against the truck. He was able to capture a photo of the truck and when he was looking closely at the driver's seat, he saw a face of an evil. And when he looked at the clouds, he saw a figure of an angel.

I posted this same picture a few weeks back, when Matthew was about to hit Florida.
