Mbaddah,
You are doing well. I used a wee two inch (50mm) refractor when I viewed the Orion nebula for the first time. I was fortunate to have good 'seeing' and my young son around at the time. Whilst it was not as detailed as some of the images posted here and elsewhere it was the most wonderful sight I'd managed to see at that point in time and my son - in his early teens at a guess - was quite impressed.
Through the refractor it appeared to be green - no hints of red.
