Some good gets here Brenden..
Your M78 is coming along beautifully.... I love this object! Keep adding to it!
The colour image of the sea Gull area is also looking nice... great to see you be able to get more colour and stuff on it.
Congrats on your Newt! Looks like you have it dialed in very nicely!
They may take some fussin' over, but by hell I love my baby!
Go the fast Newts 
all the best

Im with you 100% on the newts mate, they really don't even take some fussin, you just have to know what your looking at and thats where it gets "hard". Ide never go to a refractor after having so much mirror real esatate!
As for the colour on this image
i only have one colour image in each filter of a total intergration time of 30 min
which is less than what i would normally like in each channel. I probably wont do too much more on this subject because there isn't much nebulosity around the area. LOADS of stars but not much of the stuff i love

Thanks trev, i guess for me there are a few little things like the smoothness of the overall image and a due to the wind the stars arn't as nice as i would normally like them.
Ill wait for some nice weather to come though and just shoot that kinda stuff from the back yard

Thanks alistairsam, that overall area has a whole stack of NGC's in it and isn't just one. In the sky6 it is calling it NGC 2035 - The seagull nebula. All in all the nebulosity is pretty well non exsistant in broadband imaging at 10min subs on my newt which means its extremely faint to non existant. In 15 min subs in Ha you start picking up a fair bit more details why this actually is i have yet to get a good answer
but ill find out some day.
