Winner gets a cookie and posts the next image. Must NOT be anything obvious, having something that looks like something but is actually something else is a bonus. Try to stay away from the 10000x magnification pictures that nobody will get. Also cropping and rotating will help (such as what I've done with the image below). Try to keep the images small (500x300 max).

If the image was cropped, the original poster posts the original image after somebody has guessed right, to allow others to see the similarity.

CPL.Melanson (AKA OverlorD) Gunner of B32 M270A1 MLRS, CAMP Casey SOuth kOREA..

a soldier sent to fight in a God-less place
only to come home, and have a protester spit in his face
attends a fellow soldier’s funeral
who died serving to protect us all
and a murderer is what he’ll be called
by protesters who stand behind the cemetery wall
but the soldiers will still stand proud
cause of these men, the protester’s voices are allowed
the protesters chants are loud
but the soldiers are just happy to hear the crowd.

I cheated, and know the answer, but won't reveal it, because it's just not fair.
BTW, someone here has already got it, and no, it isn't me.

Yes, I added that there just in case you tried to cheat.

2 hints:
- It is naturally occurring, but not "living" in it's own right.
- It is large.

Hunter is the only one to get the right answer, infact, he got it first guess too - so this isn't impossible.

Another hint: this image isn't magnified. It shows something FAR larger than the size of the image.

It isn't magnified. Think something HUGE.

(And don't say a huge piece of rust.)

Something tells me it's not just "a" nebula, but either the "Pillars of Creation", Eagle or the Crab nebula.
