This is IC-2177, the Seagull Nebula, in SHO or Hubble palette. Located between the Monoceros and Canis Major constellations, 3653 light-years away from us, it includes both emission and reflection zones resembling a flying seagull, hence its name.

Esta es IC-2177, la Nebulosa de la Gaviota, en paleta SHO, o paleta de colores del Hubble. Ubicada entre las constelaciones de Monoceros y Canis Major, a 3653 años luz de nosotros, incluye zonas de emisión y reflexión que se asemejan a una gaviota en vuelo.

Two versions of the Flame and Horse head nebulas.
The Hubble palette shows Sii (sulfur) rich zones in red, Ha (hydrogen) rich zones in green, and Oiii (oxygen) rich zones in blue, usually resulting in green-blue hues; the Foraxx palette takes the SHO image and maps each pixel to decide how much of each channel to use and produce a more organic image.
