Omega Cen by moonlight.

Hi,
Another moonlight image, Omega Cen this time and again a cropped image. I've been playing around in Photoshop trying to get the star colours right. Some images of omega I've seen on this forum have a distinctly golden hue to them, so thats what I aimed for.
It does seem to screw around with the background when using saturation for the stars, any tips?

Camera Canon 1100D, no coma corrector at ISO 200.

Cheers,
Justin.
