Hi, Chris,
I really like the composition, depth, and clarity, and especially the treatment of the nebulosity toward lower left. There are bits of the cat's paw that have a similar "roast chicken" texture. Goes with the flames, perhaps.
Astrophysically, I wonder if that vaguely honeycombed effect is due to two overlapping sets of multiple shock fronts at slightly different distances, and slightly different orientations.
Best,
Mike
