Here is an image I took recently of the Eskimo Nebula. I attached a mid sized thumbnail but full size image as well as exposure and processing details are at:

I use my C8 scope and ToUcam SC3 RAW Camera.
One thing I did in the processing was to reduce the blue a little in the nebula area. I found that the blue seemed to overpower the details in red.
