Every creature has been given a unique face and a distinguished identify. But what if you start seeing faces everywhere, even in inanimate things? Whatever you may think it is, essentially what you’ve got is an incredible concept for photography.
Today we are presenting lovely and pleasant faces which will make you smile. Your creative thinking will come alive by looking on these pictures and you may also get obsessed with faces everywhere.

What a creative idea! Some are smiling, some are sad, some are smiling, some are mocking but all in all its very entertaining.

Fun :) I love going for this kind of photography when going for a walk, especially around my own neighborhood or somewhere where I see all the time. A camera can make an old place new again.

If you (start to) take this kind of photos, you’re always welcome to join us at http://www.flickr.com/groups/faceseverywhere/. It’s one of the many sites where people collect “abstract faces”. Nowadays it’s second nature for me to look for these kind of images.
