Skyhound: You'd have to explain your imaging process and equipment for anyone to be able to answer what that is.
Just call me "geck" because "zilla" is like a last name.

Looks like Roger Hargreaves' Mr Messy standing on the South Pole of Jupiter. But that's impossible -- Mr Messy isn't that big, nor is he real, nor could anyone stand on Jupiter. I'm going with "optical aberration". Maybe your camera needs a visit from Mr Neat & Mr Tidy?

The Jupiter First Party's first nuclear test was just a bit too large. There are fewer of them now.

Sorry, I forgot to include my friend Samuel in the credits of the last picture, and accidentally posted it as guest so I can't edit. Let me try again:
