Description

The Crab Nebula is a supernova remnant and pulsar wind nebula in the constellation of Taurus. The nebula was discovered by English astronomer John Bevis in 1731. It corresponds with a bright supernova recorded by Chinese astronomers in 1054 as a guest star. The nebula was the first astronomical object identified that corresponds with a historically-observed supernova explosion. (Wikipedia)

For this HOO image, I wanted to change from the traditional picture with a lot of red due to the Ha.

So this is an OIII enhanced picture I hope you like it.
