Electric Broom

Hello,

This is a 5 filter - 3 frame mosaic of an amazing region that you have seen many times before. I pushed the colors pretty hard so bring your 3-D glasses as they may work with this image!

Thanks for taking the time to look . . .

Kindest Regards,

Sensational, Ken.

What I find so intriguing is the way the nebula just tapers off to the left there. Fascinating.

Quite a shot! It is very interesting to see how the blue front looks very linear and continuous in shape opposed to the trailing red which is more fiery and convoluted. Top work as always.

Gobsmacked. The blue especially is electric, like lightning strikes.

Whoa, first Tom, now you turning to the dark side of the saturation tool.

Very impinging image with sensational detail. The heavy colour is interesting too. There's definitely no rule saying muted colours are all that is OK.

Cool image.

Greg.

Thanks! I admit that I pushed the contrast and color until I thought it would explode! But I you will never know the limits of your data until you push them.

Thanks again for all of the kind comments - I should have a warning on the picture you may need sun glasses!
