Description

This wide view image shows the beautiful interstellar clouds surrounding the Wolf-Rayet star WR136. In the centre of the image is the Crescent Nebula I posted yesterday.(The data was collected from the ‘IC Astronomy Observatory’ in Spain over a 6-month period through Telescopelive. I processed it using Pixinsight, Photoshop and Topaz DeNoise)
