Eagle Nebula, Messier 16 - Pillars of Creation Postcard

Eagle Nebula, Messier 16 - Pillars of Creation Postcard

Galaxies, Stars and Nebulae series A breathtaking outer space picture showing a spectacular three-colour composite mosaic image of the Eagle Nebula (Messier 16, or NGC 6611). It's based on images obtained with the Wide-Field Imager camera on the MPG/ESO 2.2-metre telescope at the La Silla Observatory. At the centre, the so-called “Pillars of Creation” can be seen and this wide-field image shows not only the central pillars, but also several others in the same star-forming region, as well as a huge number of stars in front of, in, or behind the Eagle Nebula. The cluster of bright stars to the upper right is NGC 6611, home to the massive and hot stars that illuminate the pillars. The “Spire” - another large pillar - is in the middle left of the image. image code: eglneb ESO/J. Reproduced under the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported license.

I got these to go with the matching invitations and used them as RSVP postcards. Everyone loves them! The feedback was they are the neatest design the invitees have seen! Just a word of caution these default to matte so if you are wanting gloss you have to change it manually. Thanks Cathy for providing the best product for our occasion! I am super impressed! .
