Description

NGC 1514 The Crystal Ball Nebula in Taurus.

It looks indeed  like a glowing blue crystal in a  dark black sky to me.
This  is made in SHO,but only the outside ring  has  some H-alpha , and  only the  core star shows  Sulpher.

The  dominant part is the O3,i think thats why the color is so blue.
