The Pillars of Creation are almost always shown in false color, so I decided to take a rare image of them in true color to showcase their real beauty [OC]
EDIT: I looked for a higher resolution version. NASA's website contains the one I posted above, so I don't know if there's an official big version. I found some on various sites that are bigger and this one looked the best to me https://i.pinimg.com/originals/28/4b/c7/284bc796de7980441a2566eddce85339.jpg

Just the sheer size of the structure is unimaginable. Beautiful picture.
