Xmas Full Moon using red and green filters

I used red and green filters for two of the pics cause--- Christmas spirit, ya know? lol.  Conditions were very cloudy so the red didn't come out the way I was hoping.  If I ever figure out how, I want to merge the red and green pictures so the moon is half green and half red.  Still learning photoshop. 

I used a Nikon D3100 for these pictures. For the pictures where you can see the full moon, I attached it directly to a Meade 2045 4" Schmidt- Cassegrain. (No eyepiece, no barlow)  For the close up, I used an Orion Starquest XT6 Dobsonian. (I was fooling around with different eyepieces cause I can't focus with the camera without them using this telescope.  I think for this picture I used a Celestron 17mm and a 2X barlow, but not positive.)

Happy Holidays!
