The problem is - when is it too much?

Ah the eternal question. The answer is all up to you. Rob Gendler has some helpful tips on his site for combining Ha to RGB. I find Ha blended with Luminance helps a lot. I did exactly that when I imaged this same object a few years back. You can find it in my gallery to see the result. You can make a false luminance by combining all the colour data too if you don't have a genuine luminance.
