NGC 1999 and nebula around it!

Hi all,
Here is my image of NGC 1999 and the nebula around it!
I'm pretty happy with this image!
16 hour X 7 minutes HA (zwo filter)
1.5 hours X 2 minutes of RGB each. (Zwo filters)
Total over 20 hours!

Processing was challenging, integrating ha and RGB for the first time.

Made a synthetic lum channel by adding the ha and red filter together using Maximum in pixel math, actually used that for the red filter too.
Combined to make lrgb, did TGV, scnr and histogram)curves/dark structure enhance.

Here's how I imaged the ha!
