DLSR Colour in M31 & others

[drumsolo]

I have an unmoved Cannon 1100d that I have been using for Deep sky objects but I don't seem to be able to produce much in the way of colours. My recent M31 attempt looks very monochrome, is there any tricks I am missing to pull colour out or am I doing something wrong initially? I took 30 x 180 subs of M31 and stacked in DSS with Photoshop processing.

Any help or thoughts would be very appreciated.

Thanks

Try restacking the images in DSS. Sometime I get that too. Restacking and then a little bit of stretching in DSS before saving works.

Can you kindly post an image with the capture details please? This could be helpful.

If you are using RGB Channels Calibration then the lack of colour in DSS is expected. I always up the saturation slide in DSS by 20%.
