Amazonian Posted June 26, 2012 (edited) Just thought I would share a few pictures with you guys... See if you can see the plant spirits. Some of you will see the 'plant spirit' straight away?, others might not see anything. First are a few pictures taken with my iPod using an app' called CamWow, that produces a mirror image. Here is a Cat Nip Spirit.. ( This one is freaky!) A few Khat plant spirits.. A palm trunk that looks like a sleeping tusked dude, totem pole style... This next one is some white ebony that was being sold on ebay for knife scales (handles).. Its a piece of wood that has been sliced down the center, and laid side to side. As soon as i saw it, i could see a big wolf head. (I bidded on it but i missed out.. bummer). You see the wolf...right??? Well, this is where i see the faces.. There are more if you use your imagination Any one else have something similar to share? (or am i just crazy...wait... Don't answer that ) Edited July 9, 2012 by Amazonian 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FancyPants Posted June 26, 2012 Catnip: Looks like a praying mantis-herby-garden spirit. Catha: Spider-looking, predatory spirit. Khat: Powerful, beautiful sorceress. Palm: Chilled, relaxed, deceptively strong. Ebony: Powerful, old, wizened. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amazonian Posted June 26, 2012 The more I look at my pictures, the more faces I see. I can see the praying mantis now too. I have wall paper in my bedroom with raised velvet patterns on it ( was there when I moved in) , and i see a few different faces in that, and it's repeated thousands of times, and it's a bit trippy. I often see faces in patterns. And my primary school teacher once wrote in my report that I have no imagination !. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zen Peddler Posted June 27, 2012 You know I was talking about this to a mate recently. Only the dudes who had tried various substances could see these faces. I started seeing them in plants at a pub after a few beers one night years ago. Now days I dont see them at all, but years ago when I had more time I definately saw these critters with their stony-faced contemplation. My mate thinks its just the brain's new pathways making the face-recognising partof the brain upregulate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Horus Posted June 28, 2012 That is a fun effect,it might just be the first app I try download. I still use the traditional way of seeing the plant spirits. Love and psychic connection. These beautiful photos were taken by the multi talented Marcel. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Horus Posted June 28, 2012 Yes Amazonian.....its a "maidens" wattle, it has so many female resembalances.....thus the "embrace" though as you can see she only has one breast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ajna Posted June 30, 2012 (edited) lovely! i see we have the same spirit face fetish here's a few i've played with, in honour of the faces i see everywhere (and/or my mind's over-functioning facial recognition system) Edited June 30, 2012 by ajna 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amazonian Posted June 30, 2012 Way cool ajna!. I see so many faces in the first picture. What are the others, bark? lichen? a flower? Very neat anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ajna Posted June 30, 2012 yes, it's rarely just the one face with the symmetrical pics hey i like how it's a bit like a totem pole running down the middle yep, a particularly colourful and textural eucalypt bark, lichens, brugmansia flower, and injured fig Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Amazonian Posted January 13, 2013 I just discovered this Orchid... a monkey plant spirit ?,lol... Pretty neat though hey, and very trippy. http://www.kuriosita...key-orchid.html 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whitewind Posted January 13, 2013 That monkey spirit is amazing. I have noticed some really interesting forms in orchid flowers recently, this one I took seems to have a dove spirit. Not the best close-up .. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amazonian Posted January 13, 2013 ^ I also see an owl being carried by a dove. I have a great imagination I really am very fond of orchids. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rabaelthazar Posted January 13, 2013 Faces are everywhere. My favourite thing as a kid was watching the faces in my room. They were always happy and peaceful.... I see heaps of faces in your pics, Amz, and they're all beautiful. : ) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
