About this image
This is image three of a 3-image Triptych. It stands well on its own, or with its friends!
NASA and ESA are celebrating the Hubble Space Telescope's silver anniversary of 25 years in space by unveiling some of nature's own fireworks - a giant cluster of about 3,000 stars called Westerlund 2. The cluster resides inside a vibrant stellar breeding ground known as Gum 29, located 20,000 light-years away in the constellation Carina. The comparatively young, 2-million-year-old star cluster contains some of our galaxy's hottest, brightest, and most massive stars. The largest stars are unleashing a torrent of ultraviolet light and hurricane-force winds that etch away the enveloping hydrogen gas cloud. This creates a fantasy celestial landscape of pillars, ridges, and valleys.

What my clients say
My wife and I were looking for photos of places we have been to showcase within our home, highlighting some of the adventures that we had been on together. Adam had coincidentally been to a few of the places that we have recently seen. His eye for photography and capturing scenes that we had been to in person are superb! Looking forwards to more adventures with my wife, and seeing Adam's perspective on what those places show.
Very pleased with my order. Everything was as advertised and my order arrived faster than expected. I would highly recommend this.
Beautiful picture!
