This is part of the Heart Nebula.
It's in mapped color.

It's quite a busy and colorful place.

This is spectacular, Dan! 8O I really need to try some OIII and SII imaging to go along with the Ha. It would open up a world of imaging when the moon is too bright for other stuff. Nicely done on this one!
