Scott, I am so thrilled that you took me up on that suggestion! It is such a pretty pair.
Alchemy, there are thousands of colour contrasted doubles to be found, some very clearly contrasting, others more subtle. Sometimes because the difference in colour is subtle it takes a little while to notice, so it pays to take some time at the eyepiece having a really good look. Some nights I just roam the skies looking for them, at other times I work through catalogues of doubles. Argo Navis makes this very easy!
