Hubbles got the colour all wrong.

Great minds and everything Robby, I've been thinking about how to go about capturing that one. I saw it for the first time last winter (the intensity of the colour quite stunned me), and as it's just starting to get in a decent position up here, I was wondering what technique to use. I've been considering using extended eyepiece projection, either positive or negative, but I'm not sure I'd be able to capture enough colour with such magnification. What technique have you used? If it was prime focus with the image enlarged, you've done a wonderful job getting it that sharply focused.
