Hi David - Thanks for submitting images of this fascinating comet but I think your colour balance is wrong. This comet is definitely not green. See the discussion here. Could you check your workflow please?

Should have mentioned that image was taken with Antlia Triband RGB filter, I made no change to the colour balance - perhaps I should have run it through SCNR? Thanks

Now applied SCNR!
