I sent a set of monochrome images from this observing session earlier. But here is an interesting color image of the subject. We see the upper stage of a Japanese H2A 2024 Rocket which carried the IGS-1 satellites into orbit. Color is enhanged but real. If you see a launch image of this rocket type, you will see the color is indeed comparable: http://www.utahskies.org/image_library/shallowsky/apollo/top.japan.space.ap.jpg
