Pareidolia is the term for noticing familiar faces and shapes in natural phenomena, and it comes up often in the naming of rock formations like this one off Portknockie, Scotland. This 50-foot chunk of quartzite poking above the North Sea waves is said to look like the very tip of a violin bow, lending it the name Bow Fiddle Rock. And what about 'Portknockie'? That naming history is a little less straightforward: The Gaelic word chnocaidh, meaning hill, became 'knockie' through anglicization.
无与伦比的天堂之境
珍珠般珍贵的省份
不会飞，但很机灵
大海、沙滩和日落
错落有致的半岛
在珊瑚礁之上
鸟儿遇见海滩
沐浴在晚霞中的海岸
