Luke,
SWEEEET !
Congrats.
You will find on the Hutech mods that subtracting red / or adding cyan will bring the color balance to normal.

Based on the color, I guess the modded 350D shows good red sensitivity?
Nice imaging setup, BTW.

Way to go Luke. Your quality is showing. I played with your JPEG just a bit. Hope you don't mind. Great detail.

Not at all! I need some serious PS practice. I can't get the color balance right.

Fun to see the moon sandwiched between the snow bands from Lake Ontario and Lake Erie. I considered busting out the scope last night as it was clear in my backyard to do some lunar imaging.
Nice picture by the way, very detailed. Can't wait to see your work on nebulae like the Rosette, M42, Trifid etc.

Nice shot, Luke! Mine was pink too, until fixing the color in PS. Great details from that scope.
