There's enough detail now that my eye wants to make coherent shapes of the splotches on the surfaces. Anything round or ring shaped, my eye wants to turn into a crater; I have to remind myself that with Pluto and Charon lit at nearly full phase, there's no hope of seeing shape from shading anywhere on these dots just yet. But if I tell my mind there's no craters here, my eye starts catching faces and animal shapes.

It's slightly better to look at what the New Horizons team has made from recent Ralph MVIC color in combination with high-quality, grayscale LORRI data: two distinctly different faces of the two round worlds we'll be passing in two weeks. What is that maddening series of dots on the Charon-facing hemisphere? Pluto looks like a bear's paw.
