When I saw Patrick's great pix, I knew I had to out-do him. I failed, 
but I did get one that shows some aspects of this beauty that his don't.

In my pic the ridge extending beyond the beard is shown to be, or at 
least seems to be, merely the thinnest and highest of a regular set of 
ridges on both sides of the beard. Imagine if each of these side ridges 
had a beard! (To make this last comment on-topic, also imagine that each 
beard was space-age.)

BTW, both our pix show that the extension is still in a sense beard, 
since the spots are brown rather than purple. One difference is that the 
extension in mine is smooth, while his is irregular and seems to contain 
proto-whiskers.
