I do get what you are saying here Marcus and a less contrasting colouring would probably be a little more natural looking sure.. but funnily enough it was this very aspect that got me out of bed to check it out on a proper monitor It's not just another 253, it has punch and I quite like the emphasised HII regions, they look like spot fires in a galactic bush fire, which is kinda what they are
