Summary
editDescriptionNGC 2237 The Rose or the Skull?.jpg |
English: The Rose or the Skull? NGC 2237It’s known as the Rosette nebula, but ever since someone pointed out the very distinct skull features I’ve never been able to unsee the skull or frame it any other way. It even appeared on the cover of an Avenged Sevenfold metal album. I took this image of the famous skull nebula last night and it’s pretty metal. I mean, for astronomers everything (on the periodic table) is a metal, and this is literally true. Most of these metals are formed in the processes related to a stars chemistry and life cycle and every star has a measurable “Metallicity” which sounds like a good name for a Metallica cover band.
Captured in Sequence Generator Pro, Calibrated and Stacked in PixInsight with StarMask and Morphological Transformation star reduction. Then merged as HaRGB in Photoshop CC where additional levels and saturation were applied. So what do you see? The Rose, or the Skull? |
