NEBULA LOBSTER or WAR AND PEACE

An image well suffered, were 2 nights in clear to take this image, picture held between clouds and open sky.

When you process an image of this that in the background you see, yes it was worth it, I consider it your other name, for the fight that was image. Its other name is Nebulsa War and Peace, name given by the scientists of the Experimental Space Center because of its appearance. They said that in infrared images the western part resembles a dove, while the eastern part looks like a skull.
