Thanks Rodney!

Starting to see that these "young" low-energy star-forming regions are better in RGB than in narrowband. The Trifid is a tricky one, because it is a mixture of reflection nebulosity and complex emission nebulosity with bits of this and bits of that which show up well in narrowband. Then there's just about anything in the LMC or SMC, illuminated by OB stars and supernovas a-plenty, which work best in SHO.
