Description

Here is a a widefield view of the Heart Nebula composed to show the HB3 supernova remnant.  In the past, I had always composed the image to include the Soul nebula, but wanted to show the SNR area and if there was any dust interaction.  Certainly a lot of dust scattered around and interacting with the gas and star energy.  There are several Planetary Nebulas scattered around as well.
