Tarantula Nebula NGC 2070

This is the final image from my dark site visit last weekend - Tarantula Nebula.

ISO400, 12 x 300sec, 6 darks, 20 flats/dark flats.

By the time I was taking this, it was quite early in the morning and around 2 degrees - I haven't been that cold in a while.

Anyway, I've looked at other images around here and on the net... and the colour of mine is nowhere near anything else I've seen. I can see a good range of reds, greens, blues through the rest of the pic (and even in the "threads" of the nebula), so I'm not sure what is happening.
