Smile Man in the moon?

This is my attempt at photographing the moon tonight. Tried to do something different from last night. Does anyone else see the face, (eye, nose & mouth) in the second shot or is it just me?

Carol

Nice shots. Yeh, I can make out the face on the right!? Maybe its not the same face you can see though as the human brain is programmed to see faces anyway
