Wtchhead IC2118 + Tarantula 2070

Yesterday night, taken from just outside east of Parkes, NSW.
Sky was very slightly LP'ed in the West but still very dark.

I took 18 frames of 4 minutes each with ED110 prime focus + reducer (f=600mm) and Canon 6d.
I used flats, but no guiding or filters. Stacked with DSS (the PS stack was too orange).

This nebula is white, it is like it were illuminated by huge LEDs.

But actually which light source gets the nebula its light from ?

And the Tarantula taken Wednesday night from 20km outside Penrith, 17x2min, same setup but stacked and postprocessed with Photoshop.
