Been a long time getting around to finishing these pictures. I know that the color is a bit over saturated. It's color balanced on the dark lanes of the dust clouds.
This has turned out to be an interesting experiment in processing to show the absence of light. Because the object of interest is so dark, I found that getting extra data was required, especially under very dark skies. Thus, I found that I had to concentrate on this target only at GSSP.

Happy to finally be finished with this target, I'm ready to move on.
