Wow, what a view. Only Hubble could get this wonderful nebula looking so good. Try this against your view of M42 next clear crisp night :D

Stunning!

It really does look like an oil painting, its so liquid like.
It is an amazing image. All the same, I'm not one to find fault with a hubble image, :lol: its not what I expected, there is something about it that surprises me, I just cant put my finger on it :oops: , what do you think?

Dave,
the same thought crossed my mind, and to me, its the amount of filament detail it just looks so sureal that it looks as if it couldn't be possible!
