Well, I would not say purple but a bit redish. This was a surprise for
me as well. Normaly when I take images from my location here in Germany
the sky background has a blue-green tint. All my shots from Tenerife
(E200 and Provia 400F) show a sky background with a redish tint. I guess
this might be caused by the light pollution that is now noticeable even
at Tenerife. I noticed that most of the street lights there are redish.

There are some more but I have not scanned them all yet. I have four
shots of IC2118 (the Witchhead) but processing them drives me crazy. Boy
that stuff is truly faint.

Best regards
Andreas
