All I can say for mine is that I colour balanced on the galaxy itself and I refrained from adjusting the colour to just make the picture pretty. But, honestly, I have no idea if any of the RGB images we do represent anything to do with "reality" even though we like to think they do. I mean we are squeezing near IR into red and now UV into blue. This certainly isn't what our eyes could ever see. At the end of the day what does it mean to colour balance anyway?
I would appreciate other comments about these two quite different versions. Allan's perhaps looks more like the more traditional versions of this galaxy.
Perhaps this will turn into an interesting discussion. .

Thanks Peter,
my attempt was just a suggestion.
I agree with your comments.
I usually find that I end up doing a re-process of every picture I do.
It appears than no one else agrees with me so I am happy to delete my post if you want?
cheers
Allan
