I really had great fun surfing this one and I like the colours used, very believable and they make sense. One of the best 3D objects in the sky.

Good one

Mike

Thanks hugely Mike. We are greatly encouraged.

I too love this region, having imaged it several times previously but I've never seen those S2 shockfronts in that kind of clarity, wow!

As to the interpretation of Paradolia like creatures, well - that's always going to subjective but it certainly is fun racking one's brain to find familiar shapes in these objects.

A tad cyan for my lurid colour palatte tastes but lovely work guys, well done!

Thanks Andy. Delighted you like the detail. Knew you wouldn't be so stoked on the colour, but we wanted to stick to straight Hubble, with the only constraint that the image is, if you were to "stir all the paint together", neutral grey. Oh, the stars are just H-alpha.

Thanks again, Fred. We remember fondly your comment on one of our earliest efforts: "Mike WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?". We must be improving
