Thanks Allan,
In an effort to maintain scientifically correct colours I usually refer to a select few reference images for guidance. In this case the native colour correction of the scope after stretching the data resulted in a fairly close match to this image by Rob Gendler/ Roberto Colombari,

My first thoughts were inline with your comments but I decided to run with it anyway & embrace the "dark & dripping with colour look"

.
Thanks for the feedback Allan.
Cheers,
Tony
