      Breathtaking shot. Congrats on putting it all together. I have a question: I have dabbled in low light photography and stacking images to get the final result. How close is this image to what the naked eye would see if they were closer and could see it with the naked eye?

      Absolutely mind blowing! I loved the close up but this is even better thank’s for sharing.

      That’s an amazing shot. Especially given you did it from a location with so much light pollution.

      The post processing must be even more work than the imaging – all the stacking and editing. Impressive stuff!

      The pillars of creation is easily my favorite space photography subject. Thank you for posting – this is my new phone background image.

      It’s truly incomprehensible to think that this exists somewhere in the vacuum of space light years away. And the fact that we’re able to capture it in our backyards

      Good shit OP.

      Yay new phone wallpaper!

      I say that in the most complementary way, since I haven’t changed my lockscreen background for 9 months, and early ever do. Great work.

      That’s amazing. Did the post processing include color shifting or just cleanup?

      I looked at your IG page; all of your work is incredible.

      Do you think that if humanity ever could, we would mine the Pillars beyond recognition, leaving behind a cosmic graveyard of machines, souls, and byproducts in its place.

      Great job! What an amazing shot. I love seeing it from farther away instead of the typical close up.
