About this image
In the new Hubble image of the galaxy M74 we can also see a smattering of bright pink regions decorating the spiral arms. These are huge, relatively short-lived, clouds of hydrogen gas which glow due to the strong radiation from hot, young stars embedded within them; glowing pink regions of ionized hydrogen (hydrogen that has lost its electrons). These regions of star formation show an excess of light at ultraviolet wavelengths and astronomers call them HII regions.

What my clients say
Received canvas in a very timely manner and packaged with care. I would highly recommend! Now that my husband opened the canvas, he was shocked. We've been trying to capture that "shot" for years. It is proudly displayed in our living room for everyone to see.
Thanks Adam for capturing the Jens Jensen Winding Road. My wife and I have been searching for the last few years for some art that really took us back to Door County. This jumped out at us immediately. Now it sits in a place of prominence at our home. We’ll keep looking through your work for more from DC. Steve & Deb Winterhack
