Mike,

Actually I did use the RGB star color. If you look at the image you will see
lots of orange, red, and blue stars, which would all be pink if I had not
blended in the RGB stars.

Ho-Ly Cow!!  Already your favorite image of mine Bernard.  Heads and
shoulders above the RGB cone you posted a few days ago - and that's a great
image too.  I don't know how it's done - but have you given any thought to
stripping the stars out of the narrowband and letting just the RGB data
contribute to the star color?  Now I'm really interested to see the
finished product.  I see a bright future for you as you get acclimated to
narrowband imaging.
Note to self:  Might be time to consider a mono camera and filter wheel.

Mike
