M42 thru my 6" f5 dob with 25mm Plossl is a great sight.
I'm in the city but light polution isn't that bad, can see 5.5mag stars naked eye with last nights moon, and occasionally a 6th mag will flash into view.
This may cause some arguments (flame suit-on) but I definitely see a very slight green tinge in the 6", tho no pink at all. It's not something that sticks out tho. The tinge is only noticable when comparing with the white-ish stars in the same field.
