Excellent! There is a lot of good detail and surprising depth there.

Rotate the image a quarter-turn clockwise. About 25% of the way toward 5 o'clock from centre, there is a large and almost perfect head of a young man in half left profile. The face is red-brown. The head is either wearing a cocked hat, or has abundant dark brown hair. There is a suggestion of an elfin or Spock-like ear in OIII.

We've never noticed this face before. It is in retrospect obvious in our own narrowband Swan, and in those of Andy Campbell and Mike Sidonio. It is much less obvious in most RGB swans.
