LDN 1667 (Custom SHO blend)

LDN 1667, aka SH2-310, NGC2380 is one of the largest HII regions known in our own Milky Way galaxy! Its almost incomprehensible to think that there are over 60,000 identifiable stars in this small image and any two are about 4 to 5 LYs apart, 1LY is about 6 Trillion miles, wow!
