Seeing animals again, Mandrill Nebula?

Hi,

This is an image of the eastern part of the veil nebula in Cygnus, only gets to 23 deg above the horizon from my latitude.
While processing to find the best orientation for this image I noticed it looks like a Mandrill's head.

What do you think



8" F/4 astrograph HEQ pro 5 mount. Orion mini guider.

Unmodded canon 1100D, baader type III coma corrector.

15 x 5 minute subs, ISO 1600 and 11 x 2 minute ISO 800. Stacked in DSS, processed in PS7.
Plus repro .

Cheers,

Justin.
