TerryMcK Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Very nice image. The facial features are standing out well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg M Posted February 19 Author Share Posted February 19 Where's the face? I seriously can't see a monkey??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryMcK Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Turn your head counter clockwise thru 90 degrees. The mouth is then at the bottom smiling and the eyes are the brighter orange circles. The nostril is the the dark area just above the protuberance forming the upper jaw. I also see a funky hairstyle too with the wispy bits of nebulosity at the top of the head. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonyme Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 I thought Terry had been nibbling the special mushrooms but looking at it I can actually see a quiff! Gary 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg M Posted February 21 Author Share Posted February 21 It's interesting that you rotated the image to this orientation to see the monkey. If you look on Astrobin for this object, I'd guess that better than 80% have the image rotated 180° from your view or 90° anti-clockwise from my view. Either way, I still don't see it...unless this is it??? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinS Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 I prefer the second image, it is so lifelike. 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaDec Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Cracking image - that orientation is how I've always seen it Greg - 90 degrees anti-clockwise from your original. Keith 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
