Yes, a horseshoe crab, but also those lamps in the beginning of Pixar movies. *smile* The colors are great together! ~Lydia

Good light and color here. I have been searching for an hour to find the name for what this immediately reminded me of: A horseshoe crab!http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horseshoe_crab - peculiar creature.

I agree with the other comments. It does look like a spacecraft indeed. And by not showing the base, it gives am impression of a tail of some kind :)

This certainly does look like an alien Mikey! I like the blue outer space hue also. ;-) CJ

Thanks Debi & Rod. Of course, this is a small desk lamp, lit by a 2.5W LED spot that I have in another one nearby. The way it came out it reminded me of the first "War of the Worlds" movie. Thanks for the comments, -mikey
