IC 2944 largest BOK globule

Hello,
Just wondering if anyone else thought that the largest BOK globule of IC 2944 looks just like Australia?
The picture in a DK book Universe (2005, p 244) is stunning .
Probably something every newbie comments on I suppose...
Otherwise I'll be happy for the authorities to rename it Autralianis-Spearo
HAHAHA

Perhaps Western Australia and part of NT ... Think you may have missed QLD falling into the pacific ocean and Tasmania is completely olbiterated .... otherwise ... yeah .... "looks just like Australia"
