Description

Here are two versions of a 2-frame mosaic of the mid-portion of Pickering's Triangle. One is a full spectrum HST palette in which the green is not totally suppressed. The other is essentially a bicolor version in which the green is completely suppressed (see Original). Note the greater color variation in the former. In particular individual filaments express their dominant emission. In the green suppressed version, secondary yellow and cyan are lost in addition to primary green. Yet some people just hate to see any green.
