Some bright DSO's will show subtle colour given the right conditions. I have seen greens and ruddy pinks in the Orion nebula through my 12.5" and I have seen some red/pink on the Trifid Nebula in a 16" dob. Planetary nebulas can show colour, but generally Steve is right - no colour on galaxies and faint nebula.
