I don’t see the Wizard either, Dan!
This is beautiful anyway. What is the Hubble palette?

Hi Dan. I can’t say I understand at all the work that goes into getting one of these deep space object shots, but it looks fantastic. Very nice work.

Very nice detail on an interesting object! In the time scale of the universe, you should enter one of these in the Stopped Action weekly challenge. It’s awesome to think what it would look like in a time lapse over several billion years.
