So you mentioned already. And also you very likely did not photograph Venus or Mercury.
Just call me "geck" because "zilla" is like a last name.

The stereo effect (using appropriate glasses) seen in the red/blue anaglyph that is brought up through the "revealed in amazing detail" link is absolutely superb. :)

The Rosetta Comet we observed on Aug 7,2014 . Was in great detail and my brother Jerry Grisham noticed a Face on the
back of the Comet , in very good detail, with a fore head ,and eyes sockets, prominent Nose, and mouth and chin.
See if you can point this out.
