I've been sorting through all my photos of the past that involve water waves and reflections. With features in Lightroom, these can be enhanced to show the textures and colours more vibrantly.
There's a headline today about foaming waves in Fort Erie. It made it to MSN with a video of waves hitting the pier in Port Stanley. What is the significant of foam? The National Ocean Service says that waves foam when air is mixed into dissolved organic matter in water, creating bubbles.
What are the strange waves and things that occur to water? Most of the weirdest wave headlines are targeted to surfers. But I remember the Ontario photographers who captured a face in the waves - I've included it below - it is by Cody Evans. This was Lake Erie.
There's a 2018 story by Brian Hansel who captured a storm event on Lake Superior and has pictures in which the waves seem to have faces. I sort of see them, maybe. Not like the one above.
This next one is from Britain - at the Sunderland Roker Pier.
isn't it amazing - so many pictures of waves with faces. But then, I see faces in lots of places - it seems to me to be a normal thing - its is called face pareidolia "fools the grain" - there are parts of our brain dedicated to processing real faces. We use that part a lot so process lots of things into faces.
