I have to keep looking at this pic it's so nice.

Rolf, you should shoot nova more frequently.
One of the complications of it's strong Ha emission is that it excludes most standard DSLR imagers from getting true colour since unmodified DSLR's don't show Ha well. It also helps to have a big scope. That's why a lot of us are having trouble with the colour.
