Thanks so very much Brenda, Bob Jeana and Melissa.Brenda, I thought they looked like faces also, the second one down I thought looked like a sleeping lion lol. YES and 2 Santa Claus's on the next one, I didn't notice it, but now I do.
Seem's everytime I put a photo together I get another image of something that look's like something lol.
Jeana, yup, went into EOD. I didn't even mess with the color's except auto contrast and auto color and adusted the contrast 20% more. The color from this camera is sometimes amzaing.
Have a GREAT DAY everyone and thanks again!!! #4619970
Nancy (Peaches) Harker August 08, 2007
Thanks very mush Cliff, I liked all the different textures and and designs too, I have NO idea what made me take this photo lol, but I was standing there taking picture's of flowers and EOD popped into my head, seemed cool to take a photo at a angle rather than just the front. Have a great day! #4619994Steve Lesgold August 08, 2007

Is this like the ink blot test? I see a Alien in the top middle brick, then a man standing on his head, a pirate with sword symbol , a cat with a third eye and a bunch of leaves. I can't find Santa! Do I win? LoLNancy (Peaches) Harker August 08, 2007
