Recently Paul Haese found this little gem. Rolf (SkyViking) noticed that it bears a striking resemblance to the monster wolf in Norse mythology - Fenrir. See a brief description of the myth here -

So, here is my rendition of the Fenrir Nebula (SL17) in Scorpius. Not surprisingly, given it's quite a faint Ha signal embedded in a dense star field, this was quite a tough subject to process. Getting the right balance between neb and stellar profiles was a challenge. I also wanted to be careful not to let the Ha blend obliterate the subtle colour tones visible in the LRGB version. I think I got the balance right (there's nothing out there to compare with other than Paul's rendition). I'm pretty happy with it anyway.
