I've seen the colors through my 6 in refractor.
I have seen both blue and pink in the Trifid at Bryce on several occasions
with telescopes from 16" and up.

I've seen pink in both the Trifid and Lagoon, through Charlie Green's 29" at SPOC many years ago. Couldn't detect blue in the Trifid, though.

Anyone ever see the colors in the trifid, IE pale blue and pink?
