Sticking to imaging galaxies, or even star clusters, is probably easier because the RGB process is pretty standard and straight forward and the visual appearance, in terms of colour of galaxies or stars, is a little more standard and known and way less open to artistic license

Hi Mike.
it certainly makes for a lovely, interesting image no matter
how the colours come out.
I have 3 technicolor versions with the same data on my Flickr photos.
The final one even has Green in it.
I just enjoyed seeing what you could do with the Tarantula
to the point where it felt like I was doing a Van Gogh painting.
I was mixing various amounts of Ha into Luminance and Red.

cheers
Allan
