Here is my revised image. I just stretched each channel separately in the Histogram Transformation tool rather than using just RGB like I did last time. Definitely less monochromatic. I think it is better than my original and closer to what Rick posted.
Must say as a newbie to it the AstroBin site is pretty good to use. I like how you can upload a revised image. On the right side of the page you can click on the original and switch between original and revised images.

Have I graduated to the Deep Space forum yet?
