Description

IC 2177 known as the Seagull Nebula. Data is mapped to the Hubble palette sulfur to red hydrogen to green and oxygen to blue. I removed the SHO stars and instead used HOO mapped stars because they look more realistic in my opinion. The nebula is  3,653 light years away and is located in the constellation Monoceros. Data from telescope live.
