Tears of Mother Earth Illusion | Mighty Optical Illusions

A dramatic picture taken by Michael Nolan has been dubbed the face of Mother Nature crying on a canvas of melting ice and cascading water on a Norwegian Glacier. Randy Schutt discovered this amazing photo which shows a crying face in an ice cap located on Nordaustlandet, in the Svalbard archipelago of Norway. The tears of this natural sculpture were created by a waterfall of glacial water cascading from one of the face’s eyes

Can't find anything proving photo manipulation. Probably legit.

And quite striking!

It's just your brain looking for answers, trying to put together puzzles. You could stare at a bathroom wall and find pictures of just about anything, although sometimes certain events can't be explained by science as easily as this example.

It's my brain saying "Dayum! Cool pic!"

I'm pretty confident that the picture is real.
However, if you read the verbiage at the link, much of that is propaganda.

Wow.

Definitely cool !
But what the hell is sad about that?

The propaganda verbiage in the link.

I was enjoying this picture ...until I read..."This is how one would imagine mother nature would express her sentiments about our inability to reduce global warming. It seemed an obvious place for her to appear, on a retreating ice shelf, crying.”

Yeah ...it is sad when someone tries to turn a cool pic into something it's not.

Its caused by the melting ice.

Maybe if we called it the virgin Mary or Jesus crying over the death of mother earth blah blah blah or maybe call it the fetus of an earth as yet unborn yadda yadda ..........

Yep, that would do it!

No it wouldnt. I see it as a cool pic brought on by the vagaries of nature. Nothing more.
People who try to read something into these things are silly,and it really doesnt matter what they try and apply to it. Whether its some misguided attempt at attaching it to Gaia or God.
It's pure hogwash....

I still have my potato chip collection of famous people.

Cool photo, real and anyone can read whatever they want into it but it is just a natural really cool pic.

I'm not so sure the picture is untouched. I'd be fully convinced by a long video taken as the boat went slowly by.

I thinks it's a photoshop masterpiece!...and the comment is bullshit personification of naturally melting ice.
