Great shot Adam the ears of m27 have come out very strongly but I prefer first as colours too bold in second. JohnH.

Thanks for the comments, I think the first is better, I get a bit carried away and want to make the pics too colourful, they do look better with a more subtle approach.

Looking good Adam, I like the first also, but also like the star colors in the second. One thing you might try is reduce the brightness/contrast a bit, and keep the saturation a little lower... you'll be surprised how much detail comes through at that point.
