Description

Here is "Cone Nebula."
Setting aside all the difficulty of astrophotography and the technical stuff for a moment: Many of the objects we photograph in space are like beautiful abstract art. There is order and structure in the apparent chaos. From a great distance, the incomprehensible scale of the stars, gasses, dust and dark matter appear connected.
