The original NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image was released under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported license. I carefully enhanced the picture with a special treatment. Looks like a realistic painting, can be printed in large sizes and the colors pop more than in the original image. It will look amazing as large print, canvas print, metal or acrylic print on your wall. Bring the universe in your home or office.
