The Eye of God - Helix Nebula

This image was REALLY challenging I thought - this is 5 data sets (~5 hours) combined for a single image, and even still the data was pretty rough (Sii was unusable). I wanted to highlight was was going on in the shadows of this one to get a different look from how everyone else was processing it. This is my take.
