Good, there really should be some green in NB images of nebulae, this notion that green is bad is nonsense, it represents the Ha in an SIIHaOIII blend Of course too much green can look aesthetically unpleasing but it should be there

Your narrow band Rosette is a very "real" approximation of the emission happening, not simply a purely artistic interpretation and it looks great
