I stared upward, hoping it would somehow make their voices come through more clearly. As I looked up, a face morphed out of the ceiling, seeping from the drywall like an over-heavy droplet of water. Its skin was pale with dull feathers except for its dark eyes; it had sharp, pointed teeth and an odd, oblong head.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">If this manifestation<\/span> had not soon detached and floated free from the ceiling, one wonders, might it have imprinted itself in the plaster,\u00a0if it so chose &#8212; leaving us with another of those possibly supernormal visages that folks &#8220;see&#8221; on physical things like walls?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.panoramio.com.storage.googleapis.com\/photos\/large\/2658804.jpg\" alt=\"Image result for miracle images trees\" \/>Stranger still, according to a recent news item, trees at Ladysmith Cemetery in South Africa seem to turn and twist, at various times, according to myriad passersby, into what they interpret as demonic visages.\u00a0Crazy stuff.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Or is it?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0&#8220;If you drive along Poort Road, past the first tree that inspired us to coin the term, many people say that if you look quickly, it\u2019s almost as if the tree moves, even on a windless day,&#8221; reports a newspaper. &#8220;Then you look again and it\u2019s standing as rigid as all the other trees around it. There are two such trees in Poort Road, as reported in our articles.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">From a certain angle, one of the trees appears to have a bowed head, with a wing extending out from its back. An angel? No, but aren\u2019t those horns we see?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">&#8220;Opinions vary from the demonic to the angelic to the unusual to &#8216;it\u2019s just a tree and nothing special at all,'&#8221; says the news blog.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Quite a variance of opinions!<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ladysmithgazette.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/64\/2018\/06\/IMG-20170429-WA0001.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Many astronomical photos have profiles that can be readily interpreted as good or evil (or naught but circumstance)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">As for trees, this time from a holier viewpoint: &#8220;My niece took these pictures after praying the rosary at a park in Long Island, New York,&#8221; notes a viewer in our mailbag just this week.<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15710\" src=\"https:\/\/spiritdaily.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_9868.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"640\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">And healthwise &#8212; physiologically?
