IC 4628 in NB

[Benklerk]

The Prawn Nebula is an emission nebula located in the Sagittarius Arm of the Milky Way. It has an apparent magnitude of 7.31 and is around 6,000 light-years from Earth in the constellation Scorpius, the region is about 250 light-years across, spanning over 3-4 full moons in the sky.

The nebula was discovered around 1900 and it is a stellar nursery that contains a large number of very hot, luminous, young stars, formed out of the surrounding gas.

I also made other versions by switch the colour around, let me know what you think, I don't see many people doing it.

That is 4 very nice colourful images, I wonder which is correct, I personally like the first and last. I can see this from here, just, but not possible to image it so low down, thanks for sharing something many of us will never see.
