So Apparently iPhoto's Faces Feature Isn't Perfect

Having just installed iPhoto 09 recently, obviously one of the first things I did was to test out its spiffy new ability to detect faces in your photos. Well, let's just say that it's not quite perfect. I'm not saying it doesn't work at all, but... well, just see for yourself.

Ok, so I'll give it credit that this Christmas present label Santa is kind of technically a face, at least, but that doesn't mean it's not amusing anyway. And yes, in the interest of full disclosure, I did tag another picture of said label Santa before this, so maybe this is actually an endorsement of the feature, not the other way around.

So this picture isn't exactly one that I would normally be anxious to show off in a public setting, as it shows my apartment's bathroom after a rather unpleasant plumbing accident. I'll just leave the details at that. Still, the fact that iPhoto somehow found a face in this thing is more than worth putting this ugly pic on display.

And finally, apparently my family's Chicago river cruise tour guide from a couple of summers ago resembles a plastic light-up Halloween skull that my roommate and I decided to name Yorick. Almost makes me feel sorry for the guy. I mean, you can't deny the resemblance.
