Wow John! The 3D effect is not just very effective, but the entire image has my overly imaginative mind working overtime.

I can make out several widely different shaped brown and multicoloured creatures across the image. There is one which is emerging through the swirling gases surrounding the vortex at the top left.

This is definitely a great work of scientifically based art, however, I guess those critters must have eaten the Chicken because I can't see any signs of it.
