That said, I probably will revisit it and do another combination with a different palette, just to see what it's like 
Thanks again! |
That's a great image. Personally, I like the green in it. The trend these days (and certainly on Astrobin) seems to be a bi-colour orange/blue whereas a gradation from blue/teal to gold/red through a hint of green gives a better sense of the three ionised elements that are being imaged. I think most people think of the Hubble Pillars of Creation image as the prime example of the Hubble palette and it certainly wasn't a binary image (see attached). That is just my opinion though (I'm hoping to start a conversation, not a flame war
).
