The blues though lack punch and saturation, probably due to the O3 being affected by the moon. Can you dial them up a little to compensate?
Darn good result though, you should be pleased with that one

Thanks Andy,
The subdued blues are kind of intentional and a result of the mix. I haven't done a straight Sii/Ha/Oiii mix, it's more Ha:Ha/Sii:Oiii(Ha):Oiii, With a bit of fiddling to get the Oiii to be "smoky". I see a lot on here that all look like NASA hubble or similar and flat/compressed, so I try something different to reveal nebulous structures.
I could try a different mix over the weekend. I had an idea in my head before I captured this and it got kind of close to what I was after so I'm pretty happy with it.
