🧠On August 30, 2024, I first worked on this galaxy with the same data. After a year of experience and improved techniques, I revisited it.
I wanted the stars filtering through the dust clouds, the hydrogen regions illuminating the spiral arms, and the intense star formation in the galaxy's center to be much clearer and more balanced. ðŸŒ
This work is not just a visual representation; it's a reflection of observation, patience, and a journey of rediscovery that has developed over time. ✨
