NGC 2170: Angel Nebula Abstract Art

This is a photograph, not a painting, of NGC 2170, also known as the Angel Nebula. It is a reflection nebula, meaning it glows by reflecting the light of nearby hot stars. The region contains other bluish reflection nebulae, a red emission region, and dark absorption nebulae, all set against a field of colorful stars. Like a cosmic still life, the clouds of gas and dust create a beautiful, abstract composition.
