Stone Trolls


In Tolkien's Middle Earth, sunlight can turn trolls to stone.  

Is that what happened here?

Oooh, I'm glad he's stone...I'd hate to meet him on a gloomy day!

Quite the monster! Such an image you have given us! Happy New Year!

Sure looks like it to me! I have suffered from the happy affliction of pareidolia my entire life (seeing faces and people in things). In fact, there is a wonderful twitter feed (my fave) called "faces in things". Ah, but I digress...

In French, we say "paréidolie"for this kind of picture .
