Melotte 15 and IC 1805's Heart, Early Fall 2013
Here is a slightly modified Hubble palette version of the cluster Melotte 15 and the heart of IC 1805. To the bi-color I've added Sulfur II emission. Now SII = Red, Ha+NII = Green, and OIII = Blue, though the colors have been shifted somewhat to emphasize the contrasts between them.
