My first deep sky image still a work in progress. Taken November 10, 2015 at Pulpit Rock. Orion 80mm CFT, Canon T1i, captured with Backyard EOS, stacked in Deep Sky Stacker, processed in Photoshop CS3. Unguided - 21 subs @ 25 seconds plus darks. I am disappointed in the lack of detail but it still needs further gradient and noise processing. Not sure about color or if bringing out more detail is possible, I think the data is there.
