There are a few ways to do it. One is to combine it with the red and weight its brightness so it doesn't overtake the image.
Another way is to have Ha as its own layer, set it to lighten mode and colourise it red and use the opacity slider to suit.
Another way is to use Don Goldmans narrowband technique. He has a video tutorial on his website. That's the method I use and I am happy with the results. I see plenty who get good results with 1 above but its more touchy and you have no control once done. The other 2 above and the Goldman method give you complete control and ability to adjust to suit.
Ha blending is a bit technique and a bit art. So its a matter of practice makes perfect here.

I will check out Dons technique and see what comes out .
