A most enrapturing picture, Loke.  The complimentary nebular
blue-violet and yellow-orange starlight along with red hues from
red-violet to red-orange across NGC 2112 takes my eye across the
pictures' short axis, while the lengthwise arabesque ties top to
bottom very nicely.  And, what a grey scale!
