Gday again guys. I think it's finally done!
An experienced astrophotographer and friend of mine here in Canberra, SteveC gave me a good portion of his day today, to teach me some of the finer points of processing.
My problem was mainly the color balance functions of the editing programs, of which I was fairly ignorant.
I am still working out some issues with flats, so these dont have flats applied, but I am so much happier with the result anyway.
The picture of the Rosette, and my AWFUL red and yellow Horsehead, have both turned out much more natural looking.
Take a look toward the bottom of my page at the second gallery.
