Are those colour images? On the 20s image, I detect a bluish
hue to the Earthshine on the "dark" part, which perhaps is
to be expected given the colour of out planet. Curious to know
if that blue colour I'm seeing is "real" or some artifact.

The images are colour images (i.e. they were taken as colour images
and not converted to monochrome). Apart from masking the burn and
resampling to make them a more reasonable size for viewing, they are
as nature gave them.
