Strange I never noticed this before. Assuming the image isn't Photoshopped, could the builders of Machu Picchu have purposefully incorporated their city into a naturally occurring facial likeness? Or did they have a hand in fashioning the mountains into a facial profile in the first place?

Look at this image, which seems to be more like the other pix in a googple image search.

I'd be inclined to say that they one you presented was Photoshopped, or taken with a lens that distorted it in a way that was favorable to what they wanted. The lips are just perfect, the chin a bit too sharp, but the big schnozz allowable at that altitude. By contrast, the other images seem to show the nose even bigger, and the mouth much more primitive.
Carol,
Looks like a Photoshop job to me too. Apparently the mountains were shrunk down to approximate facial proportions.
