Description

The lovely California Nebula.  I'd been eyeing this for a year hoping to get it.  My first attempt with at-the-time processing skills just couldn't do it justice.  But many months later i gathered more data and greatly improved at processing, i feel i really nailed a lovely version of it.  It's still one of my favorite images.  I love the sort of powdery feel of the color and nebulosity.
