Faces in rocks

Rock formations are amazing sights especially when one looks at them with a touch of imagination. There are rocks or hills which look like Shiva Linga, for example Shiva Gange near Tumkur. Here are a couple of rock formations in which one could see human faces.

This rock is like a dead man's face, as though its sticking out of its grave. This rock is at Koongal Betta, near Ramanagara on Bangalore-Mysore road.

The second one looks like a British cop wearing a custodian hat. This sandstone rock is at Badami, the Chalukyan capital from VI to VIII Century CE.
