| Description |
English: 2017 May 30 - replaced previous version with a brighter, more saturated one.
Note: I updated this image to remove a few cosmic rays and do a few other very minor things around 12 hours after I uploaded it. ...And again a few hours later to fix another silly mistake made in the lower right corner. Hubble's view of a near-infrared mosaic of a large and dusty star-forming region in Chamaeleon. Here rests the dream of the chameleon... I will not go into great detail about processing. Know that it took a lot of work. There were a lot of coverage gaps filled with DSS data I reworked so much that it is virtually unrecognizable. It did help to guide the interpolation of data within the gaps, though. I worked non-stop on it for about four days. If you would like to see what it looks like with the gaps and artifacts left, see The Great Mosaic Disaster in Chamaeleon by Renaud Houdinet. If you should happen to want to print it in large format, there is a bigger version available than Flickr will allow me to upload. Just ask and I'll send it along... It could potentially be printed over 1.2 m (4 ft) tall at 300 dpi.
