15+ Times People’s Imaginations Made the World a Much Brighter Place

The human imagination is seamless. We tend to see patterns, shapes, and faces everywhere we look, like a door making a happy dog face or a twisted leaf twig that looks like a musical clef. If you come across such wondrous events around you, then you’re experiencing a phenomenon called pareidolia.

We at Bright Side are fond of collecting pareidolia pictures and would love to share the best of them with our readers. Have a look and see the “faces” for yourself.
