Glad you like it Paul. I was trying to get an overall look of a blue cosmic lagoon with brownish rocks around and the green algae region was just a bonus. Got RGB star data last night so will try incorporating it into the image.

Something we've not noticed before: if you rotate your image a bit under 90 degrees clockwise, the wider area around the hourglass (which you've quite sensibly chosen to burn out so as to avoid that overly diagrammatic HDR look) becomes the white (bald) head and shoulders of Lucifer, as seen from above and behind. Still further afield are his very impressive wings.

Best,

Thank you Mike and Trish. Yes, I didn’t worry about the hourglass and was hoping to highlight dynamic nature of this beautiful cloud of cosmic gas - I can see this figure too! Perhaps he is the Lagoon keeper?
