    my point is that if the first photo was taken with the exact same program as the 2nd and third photos

    could the first photo image be because we are actually looking into the tunnel of a energy filament , hence the sort of circular impression or tubular suggestion from the photo

    Do you realize that they are photos of different things, taken with different settings, and at different distances?

    et al,

    I agree with AlexG.

    (COMMENT)

    These are different resolution and computer simulations of the data.

    of course

    but that does not mean that the first photo could not be taken with the same parameters as the second photo

    The first photo is, I believe, a deep field photo. The second is labeled the Crab Nebula.

    What part of the word 'different' didn't you understand?

    I think what River is trying to get at is "What will that photo look like when the same tools used in photo 2 and 3 are used on it?" Truly, I don't think much would change. I think the "tunnel vision" your getting out of the photo is simply the position of the galaxies. However, if they were circles of light in that photo, or possibly duplications, then we would be seeing light distortion from a black hole. I truly feel that an "energy filament" won't do anything to a deep field photo.
