Is this an Elephant or Something Else..?

This is a magnified focus stacked view of the Amphipoda that I posted earlier. I changed the camera setup from a reversed 50mm to a reversed 28mm lens mounted onto the reversed mounted magnifying lens and extended the bellows to its full length.

When the processing was completed and I could see the image it reminded me of an elephant although I've never seen a 1/4-inch elephant before.

As always, thanks in advance to all who view and for your comments, suggestions, questions and critique.

I can certainly see the resemblance. Such a strange little creature. :)

Quite amazing how humans are wired to see shapes and images as well as to see what look to be faces in things. I suspect that it is part of our evolution and must have played a part in our survival.
