Visions of Space III



This is one of my artworks based on an original astronomical photograph shot be me.
Image belongs to a large series of unpublished images called  Visions.
Note. Image is manipulated but all the elements in it are from a real astronomical object.

Three experimental starless Oxygen emission images of the Veil nebula



I played with my older material, since the weather doesn't allow new projects.

This time I'm publishing three images of light emitted by an ionized Oxygen, O-III.
Images are closeups from the large supernova remnant in a constellation Cygnus, the Veil Nebula.
I wanted to see and show the actual structure of the nebula, due to that, stars are removed from each image.

Filaments in the Western Veil, Witch's Broom Nebula

A starless O-III channel. There is a one bright star left behind due to composition reasons.
