The faces of Google Earth: Landscapes that have something familiar about them



At first glance you could be forgiven for thinking it’s the work of aliens with a sense of humour.

But these images – which bear more than a striking resemblance to some well-known faces - are mostly created by nature.

Some are man-made of course.

But without eagle-eyed users of Google Earth they might never have been found - or at least seen by the rest of us.

Now scroll down though these incredible pictures and prepare to be amazed…

A native Canadian with a headdress? Or do these hills in Alberta look more the iPod girl with earphones (right)?



A bearded man in a Polish field? But could it be the 16th U.S. President Abraham Lincoln without his hat (right)?

Her face is often on American TV screens, but could Oprah Winfey (right) also feature on a maze in Arizona? Have you found him? Well, one Google Earth user spotted what looks like Jesus (right) on sand dunes in Peru

Spookey! Is it a coincidence or has this Massachusetts field been ploughed into a Halloween pumpkin (right)?

Five alive? Nope, not this time. But the grounds of Versailles (left) do look remarkably like the Short Circuit robot
