Optical delusion

I don't know recently I look at the design on a coin. I am starting to see features within that design. Every time I look at the Denali I see a horse design within the design, and in the arches I see a face or maybe I've just been looking in my microscope too long That is a good possibility. Have a look you tell me what you see.?

I see it. Maybe a shrink should give both of us the ink blot test.

 

I think your both
delusional

 

I sometimes stare at clouds too..............

 

I see a man sitting on a rock the north east area.

 

I've been accused of much worse....

 

All I see is a Dall Sheep with big long horns that curl. Am I delusional?

 

After about 12 or so beers I sometimes get delusional,

 

If I stare at coins long enough, I see clouds

 

I think it sort of looks like a dragon coming out of the rocks and going to have a great meal.
Delusional heck no, imaginative yes.

 

The human brain is designed to find patterns whether or not they actually exist. This is called pareidolia.

From Wikipedia:

Pareidolia (/pærᵻˈdoʊliə/ parr-i-doh-lee-ə) is a psychological phenomenon involving a stimulus(an image or a sound) wherein the mind perceives a familiar pattern of something where none actually exists.

Common examples are perceived images of animals, faces, or objects in cloud formations, the man in the moon, the moon rabbit, and hidden messages within recorded music played in reverse or at higher- or lower-than-normal speeds.

 

I see a fox with ears like a rabbit and I didn't have any stimulants.

 

I don't know maybe I watch the godfather too many times, but that's a horses head. You ever think maybe the artists intentionally incorporates a design.? It wouldn't be the first time an artist has done that.

 

I'll have to look at it this evening after a few drinks.

 

No, not delusional. A Dahl Sheep has small horns.

What I see is a turtle sniffing the butt of the Big Horn Sheep. I don't know why he is smiling.

One of the reasons I never look at my coins under high levels of magnification.

 

It also happens frequently when museum-goers try to make sense of or find meaning in "abstract" or non-representational art. Rather than experience the relationships and tensions between forms as such (as one does with music), they search for familiar shapes.

Of course there is program music, in which composers try to emulate moods or places, such as Beethoven's Pastoral Symphony or Ralph Von Williams' London Symphony, but much music tries to avoid representation.

 

Okay now that all of you have had a subliminal message conveyed to you, now every time you look at the Denali ram as Chris said you gonna see something behind it with his nose stuck up the Rams but. You know like when you get a song in your head that you just can't get out of your head,

 

That's simple... I'll just continue not to look at common pocket change unless it has an overt major error or variety
