Description

I originally thought this image was going to be simple to process since M17 is so bright, but it is actually a bit trickier than anticipated with all the fine detail in this turbulent nebula to be brought out.

Not sure what I have created here, but hope you like it.

P.S. Does that look like a seahorse to the right?
