Name of the star/object

[souls33k3r]

Hi All,

First of all i sincerely do apologize because i wasn't too sure where to best ask the question (Mods, please move to appropriate if needed).

A couple of months ago i saw this image of a nebula that was very tiny and was hiding in the glow of a star (i think it was a star). It was spectacular , only problem is that i can't remember the name of the nebular nor the star.

Can someone help?

Many thanks in advance.

Cheers mate, no not this one. It was like a tiny little nebula that you really had to zoom in to the image to be able to see it past the glow of the star. It was more next to the star as opposed to being around it. IIRC it was blue in colour.

I don't know why Sirius keeps on coming to my mind but i can't find anything
