About this image

It was only when I was processing my images of Mars from a couple of nights of reasonable seeing on 22nd and 23rd March that I realised when orienting Mars with South up per convention it looked like I had caught Mars at a rotation point with a human face looking back at me. Just my imagination but remarkable!
