Description

It seems interesting that the most tangled and crowded places in space are often the birthplaces for new stars. For a time, new flares will light up the dense gases, scorch the atoms with fierce energies, then flare and die, leaving new atoms and molecules for the next generation of stars. And one day, perhaps, something will arise in the ashes of the previous stars that will look outward and wonder. Maybe even reach towards those others, and just perhaps, find that the universe isn't quite so lonely as we fear it may be. ----- Still taking a break from modeling ships in order to play with nebulae and Photoshop. This was all created in Photoshop, no actual photos were used, although I did look at Hubble shots for reference. I hope you enjoy the view!

This is very close-to-accurate color, as far as what the human eye detects. If only our eyesight could be adjustable so that we could increase the exposure length... Great image.

This is excellent Photoshop work - I actually though is was a real photograph when I first clicked and I was looking for the model ship! I have been interested in astronomy all my life, so well done.
