Helix under some moonglow

I did 20 10 minute exposures last night, about 3 hours 20 minutes worth, had to take flats because the moonglow and upper air haze killed it in Melbourne. tonight would have been worse with the moon next to it virtually and its windy. Got a decent result but nothing compared to some of our imagers here. Please critique:
TS-Optics PHOTOLINE 130 mm f/7 NEq6 Pro and ZWO asiair asi 294mc pro asi 120mm mini guide cam
HA OIII extraction and recombination using Astropixel processor combined with the Optolong L-Enhance Filter(I wonder if the L-extreme would work better for this target)
