I would welcome all people interested in astronomy, I recommend the program Stellarium.
What we see here is not like photo of the stars. The stars are displayed based on the data stored in a database. Programmers humorous adventurous people, I just know, because I was a programmer. So maybe, it was only a joke. Plus it is a photo montage, which is made from the surrounding nebula.

Yes, I was thinking something similar.
Maybe we see a supernova explosion long ago was generated trace star formation? Unfortunately I'm not an astrophysicist. Maybe I could have been, if I'm not so lazy to study. And if I am a member of the Communist Party. But the circle of stars (seemingly) nearly the same luminosity. Their B-V index are similar, B0. They are probabily Blue Giants.

This opportunity practically can be excluded.
Since we do not see photograph here. I know that this is not Pope's speciality, but a serious astronomer's acquaintances are certainly for him. I don't know, it is possible to set him onto this topic?

Or scythe-man, or mower.
You see the scythe flung over his shoulder if you look at the constellation.

I was going to suggest gravitational lensing, but it seems there is a simpler explanation.

Is it even possible to determine from a single picture?
