Rock looks like a crocodile's head


On the trip to climb Mt Towinhingy near Dunns Swamp in Wollemi National Park, NSW, Australia, I saw this rock that looks like the head of a crocodile.

Faces on rocks


On the trip to climb Mt Touwouwan near Dunns Swamp in Wollemi National Park, NSW, Australia, I keep seeing faces on rocks.
( Photos and a write up on the climb are in my blog:
http://mntviews.blogspot.com.au/2016/02/mt-touwouwan-wollemi-nat-pk-nsw.html )


Below are 4 faces from the above mentioned blog.  Has anyone noticed them besides me?

1)  Taken at Pagoda Lookout, a detour on the way to climb Mt Touwouwan ~~~

Actually it looks more like the Sphinx.
I have been climbing on the rocks. For example, I was on top of the rock pointed to by the red arrow ... see my trip report in the above mentioned blog


2)  Taken on the return trip after climbing Mt Touwouwan ~~~
This one looks like the face of a frog.


3)  On the bank of Cudgegong River ~~~
This face even has a tougue.


4)  Also on the bank of Cudgegong River ~~~
A happy Buddha
