NGC2467

Known as the Skull (and CrossBones) nebula in the constellation of Puppis at an approximate distance of 13,000 light years. The skull appearance, which I can sort of make out, is apparently created by the radiation streaming from newly formed stars, but not sure where to look for signs those other bones??
