Face in the Arch
Uploaded: May 11, 2016 | Entered: May 11, 2016 07:59:49
If you can plan your visit after 4:00 PM and you've got a polarizer, you're assured of getting some terrific pictures in Arches National Park.
This shot works for me, however, even though it was made in mid-day. And, if one looks closely, there are actually two faces in the rocks. The image was taken through the "North Window." The other tourists in the picture gives the viewer a sense of just how big the Window is!

Wowza! A fave John!! I do see one face in a profile of the rocks on the left...now how am I missing the other one? Let me know, I don't want to miss anything! :-( #1657717John P. Sandstedt May 11, 2016
Consider the eyes of the obvious face to be a mouth, the nose to be a chin. In this shot, you'll be able to make out the second face from nose down to the chin - something more obvious if the entire rock structure were included in this shot. #11473028G. Margaret Hennes May 13, 2016
