Your use of SHO here is really pleasing! I like the golden reds as opposed to the yellow/greens so often apparent in the Hubble Palette. Beautiful shot!!

Absolutely stunning shot! 🌌 The Hubble palette really brings out those intricate details in the dust columns and gives it that extra dramatic flair. Sometimes, the classics just hit differently! 👏🔭✨ #AstrophotographyGoals

A "scale" would be beneficial in providing the ability to comprehend the site of the event. That goes for all the beautiful images of space events whose extent are difficult to grasp.

NASA: "Stretching roughly 4 to 5 light-years, the Pillars of Creation are a fascinating but relatively small feature of the entire Eagle Nebula, which spans 70 by 55 light-years."

It looks more like a dove or a chicken

Anyone else struggling to see an eagle? Somehow, my mind has conjured people instead. So I dont feel as silly for this, ive included a (very low quality) sketch overtop to help others see the vision 😅
I wasn't going to say anything at first but I just couldn't get this out of my head! gorgeous photo

Yeah, I think that's it. You should look at the Running Chicken Nebula...that's one I can never make out.

Well, I certainly see a chicken in it..! but its not running, and also it's feet are wheels? I guess "Chicken looking discontently down at it's wheel feet" nebula just wasn't as catchy.
