Description

The well-known Veil Nebula in a different way...
Hates it or loves it...

Inspired by the great waves of our oceans, this idea came to me during the normal processing of the Eastern Veil Nebula. Deviating from the known color spectrum of a HOO image, I have displayed all information from the OIII and Ha channel in an extremely light blue and white.For me, it now gives the appearance of a huge wave in our universe. The RGB data for the stars revealed even tiny background galaxies.Personally, I am enthusiastic about this picture, although I like a natural editing more and more.But why shouldn't you dare something. I thought for a long time whether I would show you this daring variant of the beautiful Eastern Veil Nebula.

I hope you like it… all comments and criticisms are welcome.

Stay well and clear skies
