Hi All,
Here's my tilt on the subject.
I work hard to get an accurate colour balance in my images. I try to get the Ha the right colour, which can be seen, just not from astronomical objects, I try to get stars with colour, I try to get a neutral grey background.
If someone has taken an image which is good except for the colour I'll tell them I think the colour is off, if they care, they'll try and fix it.
I now rarely comment on others images mainly because of the comments like Ken's vitriolic replies that Peter has had to put up with. I believe, at least in this thread that Peter was merely pointing out something that can be fixed easily. Something beginners may not know.
I have some pretty high end gear (none of it purchased from Peter), but I still love some of the first images I took with my DSLR, even then I struggled with colour balance. I'll never say your images are crap because you don't have the right gear unless the person has reached the limitations of their gear and are asking why their images are crap, which sort of shows that they realise what's going on anyway.
Cheers
Stuart
