Crash away gary, if you read what jase posted on my thread RE the G2V color balance that seems the best way to officially determine..... now if someone will just circle the G2V star i will be away The Hipparcos catologue lists them so i will have to do some research.

I worked on the theory that there is some reflection nebulosity around the bright cluster and surrounds, and the Ha extensions should be a reddish color of some sort.

i have attached 3 different versions of the same image( all one of mine), one Blue, one middle and one Red, the Red is the one most put up but i think it should be more to the middle..... just my opinion. The only thing done is changing the Blue /Yellow slider its the same image with a huge difference. of course you can tinker with the green/ magenta too.

Heh, heh now ive crashed your post
