Truly great image.

(I note that there seems to be a shadowed "dark nebula" area just outside the brightest red section at the top left.)

Hi Dave, it was probably a temporary hic-up ... it is okay now.

Mike/Peter, thanks! :)

OMG !! thats a class image, the nebula and star colours are just fantastic.
That bright star in the center looks purple ! the blue orange, yellow stars are fab!

I like the spikes, and I do see what you mean about the delicate detail in the nebula, all that means is that you have another reason to go back and image it again.
