Agreed Bert (not the "looks good..."part, but the "...stars are white" bit!!!) - now a question!
Would that mean a short set of RGBs would be needed to capture star colours only - or is another 18x10mins job!!!!????

Still work to be done but at least you seem to be on the right track.
Still waiting for my OIII and SII filters to arrive, some clear skies and then just the will to go out and get back into it again.

Well done Doug.
Thanks Doug - yeah, those HaRGB star colours are as you say...pukey!!
I considered the SII filter, but really I think I would be wasting my time using it on a DSLR. Jeez, OIII is pushing the envelope as it is!!!
