Details:
The Heart Nebula(IC 1805) visible on the left, has a shape reminiscent of a classical heart symbol whereas the nebula on the right is called the Soul Nebula (IC 1849). Both nebulas shine brightly in the red light of hydrogen. Several young open clusters of stars populate the image and are visible above in blue, including the nebula centers. Light takes about 6,000 years to reach us from these nebulas. The photo is a composition of 64 individual images through hydrogen and LRGB filters with total time of exposure 11 hours.
