Amazing shot.
Have a look at the Hubble comparison, it helps to identify fine details in my image :

Ah perhaps ya right (green) Froggy but remember this was only a second thought image really, scrounged from various data sets so I wasn't exactly trying to make a perfectly balanced image. I wanted to extract as much detail as I could from the limited data, considering, I thought I did an ok job actually . As for the colour..?..I think many Orion cores are too red, the green in there is indeed very strong from OIII so there should in fact be a green influence in my opinion..anyway as I said just having some Sidonio fun
