Description

I was looking for a new target, a friend had mentioned SH2-101 - The Tulip Nebula, and it happened to be visible with enough time to capture a decent about of data. I will probably grab more, as it is still a bit noisy. This is a purely artistic representation. Not to compete or to be used in comparison to anyone else's image.

This is a combination of two palettes, NSHO for the greenery and HNSO for the flower, I thought it really showed the Tulip this way. Every now and then you have to have some fun.
