Looks clean, but I think the colour balance is wrong on your camera?

The "red" looks a bit "pink" :?

(or - was that the look you were striving for? :wink: )

You're right on colour, it was taken by a friend trying out his EOS 60Da designed specifically for astrophotography, it features a Low Pass infrared cut filter that allows the greater capture of hydrogen-alpha (H-α) light of 656mn length. :?
