I recall you beat me to the Mountain or BFG, in Puppis, last year too!  
The general colouring, collection and spacing of the component objects in this field remind me of the Cone Nebula/Christmas Tree area in our galaxy.
Lovely shot, know why I was considering it now

Ha ha!
Great minds think alike eh!
It's a cool but neglected object, and you're right about the colour palette being similar to the Christmas Tree/cone.
There may also be some S2 present but the clouds thwarted any attempt to gather any, maybe it will show in your version? Anyway, I always look forward to seeing what you come up with next so go for it!
