Description

I love this image, astro cams and modified DSLR's or mirroless cameras are great and necessary for certain targets but pointing a stock camera to a big signal nebula through the Milky Way arm and you're left with an image of incredible simplicity and beauty.

The stock element helps return a colour balance that is very close to what the human eyes can see so this O3 heavy pink purple is likely what we would see if we could.

Enjoy the view
