Doogs, that's a great image. I've never that nebula before, so hat's off to widening our list of potential targets.

If you tilt your hear about 45 degrees to the left, so the "flat spot and orange ball" are horizontal, the the white blob at (what is now) top-left is the skull - the two dark circles are the eye sockets and the semi-rectangular black and white line are the teeth. The dark nebula bits to the lower-left is one of the cross-bones.
I saw that one straight away, but for the life of me cannot work out the 'running chicken' nebula...
