Thanks all,

Thanks EztStyles, That's a good question - I can't say for sure that it is true colours. I tend to balance the colours based on the colours of the stars I can see in the image. My theory being that if the star colours look right then the rest of the image should be reasonably balanced.

It's a bit different seeing nebula in this purple/red colour - we are all so used to seeing nebulae appear as pure red colours from film images.

Keep in mind my camera is a modded Canon 300D, so it does see colours different than a stock camera.

clear skies!
