This image of the Ring Nebula appears as a distorted doughnut. The nebulaβs inner cavity hosts shades of blue and green, while the detailed ring transitions through shades of orange in the inner regions and pink in the outer region. The ringβs inner region has distinct filament elements.
Eye in the sky.

My day
Car went back to America I believe, rumoured to have been Al Capones, but they all say that.
Vintage Cadillac V16 done a couple of years back, all brightwork cleaned/polished, undercarriage clean where reachable (most of it) under arches cleaned (acres!), painstaking removal of historical polish build up on lamps and badges, a full Carnauba wax of the splendid coachwork.
Pre sale work.
