My only observation is the filter maybe restricting or inhibiting your images to bring out natural colour in stars and details in spiral arms. There does seem to be a common colour cast with most images
Maybe try without the filter next time ( even if your under suburban skies ?? )
When I image galaxies I’ve tried with and without a filter and the images are so much better in regards to colour without a filter.
Well done !!

I forgot to add ...
Obviously image galaxies without a filter during the “dark”
There’s a guy in Tokyo ( Cuiv ) who images galaxies in a white zone without filters during the dark, takes hundreds of 30 and 60 sec subs and produces incredible Galaxy images
Also check Cloudy Nights “ imaging galaxies from a white zone “ same guy Cuiv
Cheers
Here’s one of my Galaxy images ( NGC 1365 The Great Barred Spiral Galaxy ) from Bortle 8 light polluted Sydney skies during the dark taking 180 x 90 sec subs without a filter
with my OSC 2600MC
I had no issue with processing colour in core, spiral arms and Star field , when I use a filter I can’t process the colour correctly, it has a dominant brown / tan cast through it
Hope the above offers some help ?
