Well done, nothing like diving in the deep end, just needed to make it a mozaic and you would have completed the whole list
Great star colours and a great field of view! The only thing I would note is that the two nebulae should in fact be very different reds - at a much greater distance from us and hence significant interstellar reddening NGC 6303 should be a more orange-deep red and NGC 3576 a more normal magenta, other than that a fine effort

now somewhat torn. Part of me wants a QSI, and another part is happy that my normal one-short-colour images don't take me 3 days to process like this one did.

I also often contemplate getting a one shot to make imaging life so much simpler. Yes a mono and filters has the ultimate advantage in the resolution dept and are good for narrowband but for many if not most objects under average conditions I would imagine the difference would be hard to pick...with practice and some skill one shots and DSLR's make excellent cameras
