Note added: I've just had another look at the full res pic. The main colours in the galaxy itself are nice. It's just the red spots that give the impression of too much colour.

Hey thanks for the fresh and frank opinion, I like the way you explained yourself Geoff and I totally get your opinion
I think ones eye gets
used to certain "looks" or "trends" in looks even what you are used to doing with your own work (which of course your eyes spend hours staring at) sets your expectations. Then throw in the work of a colourblind imager with an incredible and big scope under dark skies and hey...it's on for young and old
I like to add the Ha to highlight the HII regions and this is often something the pro scopes do in order to do exactly that - highlight the HII regions rather than shooting for some sort of "natural"? what ever that is, look
Of course I also appreciate these "natural" looking images too and on occasions have been know to knock one out myself
Cheers big ears
Mike
