Very nice, Geoff.

The stars and star colours throughout the field, including the background, are beautiful.

You've shown the surprisingly large number of (presumed) ascending giant phase stars in the Pendant / Gem cluster very well, as well as the strong blue reflection nebulosity and hints of H-alpha glow.

On that latter point, Trish and I wasted a lot of time trying to photograph it in Ha/OIII. Unrewarding compared with your colour shot.
