Boy, do I feel like a doofus.
I recently posted an M31 with a synthetic luminance because I thought it didn't have the proper color information, but when I examined it more closely, of course it did. The colors were just a little weak because of the short exposure time. Here it is more properly processed.
Larger images and full details are here:

I'm hoping to give this galaxy the deeper exposures and mosaic that it deserves when the weather allows.
