The pink portions outline a sitting child (head, body, arm around pillow, legs around bottom of pillow) holding a pillow. My vote is for pillow.

It is ICONIC on its own but if I had to suggest one it would be Sonic the Hedgehog.

Reflection Nebula....Picture a calm lake scene where the trees and shoreline reflect a near image on the water.

It looks like a "pillow" or a "frosted mini-wheat" to me.

to me when I saw this picture I thought of an angel, so I think it should be called "Angel Nebula"
