That is a fantastically revealing and "unearthly beautiful" infrared and visible composite of the Horsehead and Flame Nebula area!

The Double Arch at Night image is absolutely magical, too.

I really like the Cederbald 214 picture too. I particularly like the subtly changing hues in this picture. A delightful "red light district" in the sky, generously decorated with shades of pinks and peach, even subtle hints of pale, pale blue.

That's an extremely interesting picture. In particular, note the nearly straight subsided area directly below the large crater near the bottom of the picture. It cuts right through the older jumbled terrain. Get out your red/blue glasses to see it in 3D.
