That is amazing and beautiful. You have quite a nice hobby there. If you consider it a hobby, I don't mean anything pejorative in that. You may have said it in the specs you gave and I didn't understand it but I have a question. NASA often colorizes deep space objects to make them more discernible. Did you do something like that or is that its natural coloration?

Thanks for sharing and the ping back. Mighty big fire crackers out there.

This will help explain the colors. An excellent read to answer your question.
