Whoever took that last photo really nailed it.

Yes, a good photo. Is there more behind your comment?

Yes and no. It is a well formatted photo, yes, but it also manages to capture the mystery. Is the pile meant to be see as a creature? Or is it another feature in a sequence of evenly spaced items leading off to the upper right? This rivals some of Larry H's best.
