47 TUC Issues

Hi All,
I was wondering if anyone could shine a bit of light on this issue?

My target was 47 TUC of various exposures, started off with 20s, 30s, 40s and 120s and when my run was finished grabbed darks using same exposures.

To combat light pollution in my area I have included a you beaut 2" LP filter to the imaging train.

I ended up with 172 light subs of various exposures.

When all light subs including new darks and on file, flats and bias frames stacked in DSS, most of the 20s and 30s were rejected due to not enough stars to detect even though I changed the value to 2%.

The debayer matrix is set to my camera, QHY8L.

The attached image is a stack of 66 subs excluding the 20s and 30s, totaling 1 hour 3 minutes and processed in photoshop.

Any ideas why the image comes up a bit on the red side?

Many thanks in advance.
