"Drifting through the Orion Arm of the Milky Way is the California Nebula, a cloud of hydrogen and sulfur gases, with a wispy veil of oxygen. More than 100 light-years long, this ‘California shaped’ mass is not far from the Pleiades star cluster in the constellation Perseus. I composed the image in a portrait orientation, with the cloud rising across the frame to emphasize the movement of the nebular folds.”- Gary Lopez
