Description Second go at this little beauty or even big beauty as it's 30 light years across. For this I have merged 2 images. One of a longer exposure to capture as most of the nebula as possible and another to expose the core properly. I've still got a lot to learn with photoshop so this image was done with tips from the uk Astro Imaging forum. Here is my first to see the difference, especially the core [link]

Thanks.The core looks much better when not too bright. There are stars and solar systems forming there right now! Might take some time though

Aye, this is fine with me
And my personal favourite among nebulosity
The only one that can be seen by naked eye, and the only one that can be seen in colour.
