Nice colour and detail, Greg.
Wrt Murray's comments, I would probably have gone for a more diagonal composition on this FOV.

Yes, perhaps you are correct. A diagonal composition might have worked better. It is a good idea to surround a nebula with regions of black to enhance contrast. However, I think the problem with Greg’s awesome image is that it wastes too much pixel real estate on nothingness at the top. The problem is similar to the amateur portrait photographer who puts the person’s head at the bottom of the image with too much sky at top. I hope that helps a little. I always struggle to find the optimum composition for a complex extended nebula. I really don't know the optimum solution for this object and focal length.
