Hello Mark, it is amazing but I was thinking the same thing the other day while I was watching your fabulous Ha shot of the rosette neb! I wasn't exactly thinking of Rocky, but a victorious fighter. However, I then had a much darker thought: it may also look like the head of a demon, but the resemblance is way less evident than the "fighter" one.
However it is a nice zoom into the huge object.

Ciao
Luca
