Same story as the Day and Night picture i couldn't sleep so i just got in to Photoshop and spent oh i don't know about 3 hours playing with gradeints, flares, and the smudge and liquify tool and this is the Result.

*NOTE:* This picture is 2,500 x 1,400 pixels witch is BIG so please be warned it will take a moment to load.

It reminds me more like tall grass looking up at the night sky...just colorful grass than a gaseous nebula...lol...

But I like the colors...well done.

Yes but who determinds what a nebula looks like? Only like 1% of the universe is mapped so who knows maybe somewhere this is what a specail nebula actually looks like but yeah i see what you mean on the grass thing, but call it artisic licenses(My Version of Nebula)

I love the colors! It does seem to be a little more solid than a nebula would be, but artistic licence is a powerful thing. Well done!
