This nebula's resemblance to a waterfall is uncanny. With the right filters and framing, it looks just like one. Of course, with these colors maybe it's more of a lavafall. This is just a small part of NGC 1999.

Description
English: This nebula's resemblance to a waterfall is uncanny. With the right filters and framing, it looks just like one. Of course, with these colors maybe it's more of a lavafall.

This is just a small part of NGC 1999. You can see a wider view of the nebula here. I only wish that the frame extended a little bit up and left.
