Soon as I clicked on your terrestrial ibex, saw the horns in the sky.

Seriously, a great image Mike and very striking - excellent! The only nit-pick would be that I'd tone down (desat) the blue / violet at the base of the horns - it's distracting and somewhat out of proportion to the nicely balanced colours in the rest of the image.

Cheers boy's ...yeeees, it is colourful
This is arguably (close to) the true colour palette for narrowband emission line images - see Richard Crisp's site, the pioneer of "Wavelength Ordered Emission Line" imaging in amateur ranks. Of course, we all interpret this stuff slightly differently too..aaand who knows, I may tweak it some yet

Marcus... that was the bit I liked

Greg, Love One! ...my favourite shirt like that is a bit worn out now too
