For the fisrt time I used for my luminance only my new Astronomik 13nm OIII CCD filter, and for the first time for the color the Astrodon RGB filters. I don't know if the color is correct but I think it is good. Difficult to say with the OIII. The Astro-Physics 0.67x CCD Telecompressor works GREAT on my Meade 12" UHTC SCT OTA. Better, really better that the Meade f/6.3 reducer. Information and the image on my web site at this link : http://www.astrosurf.com/ccdaltazao/immonth.html Enjoy !!!!

Outstanding job there. I think that if you took Ha for it and used it as the Lum image, you will get allot more of the outter halo to show. Then you can add in the OIII to the channel that looks the best to you.

I think you ought to try a blend with this image over a regular RGB image.
