    certainly not the first. There is a non-illuminated figure in the main cavern at carlsbad caverns NM that looks like a man pissing on the trail when viewed from the back, the front looks nothng like a man, luckily, so they only need keep shadow on one side so as not to upset tourists. There are also half a dozen other very accurate natural sculptures of human anatomy (or at least parts therein) that also must remain shadowed lest they offend visitors. What was renamed the chinese hat and then had its name removed was the most PG-rated of the various parts.

    That anyone would get offended by natural rock formations. Not surprising, just that kind of slight disappointment that you try to shrug off but ends up settling between your shoulder blades anyway.

      well, most of them take a bit of staring before you see it, but one is so graphic that it does have to keep from being lit. An employee decades ago put a light under it to light it only for certain friends, but since it is near enough to the lunch room, it is hard to illuminate it without upsettng many ladies. Hint: it has lips, but not found on the face. It is very well formed, and very obvious to anyone who has ever seen the real thing, it even has the ... sensitive spot.... I guess mother nature is a bit of an exibitionist.... The one with the guy pissing on the path, you have to be at the right angle, and it only looks like him from that angle, jeans slipping a bit and showing a bit of cheek. That one takes a bit of effort, some of the others take no such effort. Getting a near private tour of the caverns I got to see a number of the more embarassing formations. Since it was in a photography course part of it was being careful what you showed, inspect all of your images, because nature sticks in a LOT of detail you might miss. In our case it was not about embarassment, or covering up nature, but from public relations and printability. If you want national coverage of your photograph, you need to know what is there and make sure the photo is appropriate for the publication. If you are submitting pictures to another magazine, you can save the other photo too. :laugh:

        There's a flower in the Dominican republic that looks just like that too. I was describing it to a friend of mine in college and my brother's girlfriend overheard me. She asked what that was. :omg: :wtf: :^) :doh: I guess that's what you get when you are raised by a divorced baptist minister. :)

          I think it's a bloody miracle that the picture has been taken so seriously in the press. If you examine it somewhat critically, it's not hard at all to see that it's not a human-like figure, but a rock being half lit. Just wait and see. Soon there will be millions of videos floating around on the net, saying how NASA covered this one up, and that it really is an alien. (A rehash of the martian face, which really doesn't look like a face unless the lighting conditions are precisely right)

            Well aware of that nitwit. That's become a figure of speech, as I used it there. As a general rule, it might be wise for you to never assume you know anything I don't. However, I must say, I am amazed that you were able to accurately regurgitate that fact from wherever you originally heard it. Shouldn't you be in school now?

                  I didn't have to look very far. A few posts you very confidently declare that the Bible doesn't say the earth is flat, when if you had read anything about the matter you might have run across the verse about Jesus appearing in the east from everywhere on the planet at once. :rolleyes:

                        For Jesus to appear in the east everywhere on earth at once, either the earth is flat or there is more than one Jesus.

                        Lines like this are precisely why I classify you with ilion and captain see sharp. Nothing you say shows the slightest sign of a sharp wit, you are just completely bland and boring to argue with. And what makes it even more ridiculous is how seriously you take these silly discussions.

                          Umm, sure... That would also mean the world would have to be less that 100 miles accross since the horizon isn't the only thing that diminishes visibility. Or, oh I dunno, maybe if he had supernatural powers or something... Ooo ooo, or maybe help from God. I suppose the burning bush means that all plants contain gasoline too huh.

                              Does that matter dumbass? The world is flat or it isn't, visibility is what it is or it isn't. What the hell does perception have to do with it?!? Do I think they knew that back then? They had eyes didn't they? Moron.

                                      I think it's a bloody miracle that the picture has been taken so seriously in the press. If you examine it somewhat critically, it's not hard at all to see that it's not a human-like figure, but a rock being half lit. Just wait and see. Soon there will be millions of videos floating around on the net, saying how NASA covered this one up, and that it really is an alien. (A rehash of the martian face, which really doesn't look like a face unless the lighting conditions are precisely right)

                                      And this one[^] in my local press has annoyed me greatly, as it's clearly a seabird taken from the side. Gullible morons.

                                        No, idiot, that visibility diminishes with distance.
