Hi Lance,

Good post, definitely a truth that has to be considered.

I wasn't ready to admit pareidolia was even possible in my work - that is until spirit told me that it does happen. So the way I dealt with it is by attempting to raise my standards as far as what I would accept as a valid picture.

Unfortunately, the idea that if it isn't clear then it must not be a spirit face is also untrue. I don't believe there is any specific or special way to avoid this - it will always be present in an experimenter's work, at least until they reach a very rare and amazing point in their work. I think the best approach is to be aware of it and do our best to lower the percentage of questionable images.
