A friend did a volunteer medical trip to Peru this past year. Interesting tidbit I came across for those who've never heard - if you turn these pictures on their side, some of the features of a face can be seen. The tallest mountain is the nose.

Granted, the following painting was used with a little creative license.

I didn't notice that until you posted it. It's interesting to see this. There used to be a rock formation in New Hampshire, US, that bore a striking resemblance to an "Old Man of the Mountain", which ended up being it's name by residents of the state.

This is a composite photo of that mountain. Unfortunately, the face portion fell off due to natural causes a few years ago.
