Rodney,
Always admire your wide field work , so clean and detailed
Of course dark skies , a stable atmosphere and a boat load of data helps a bit together with a skilled astrophotographer.
Colour palette is excellent, sort of tongues of flame red.
Unfortunately a lot of objects are abundant in Ha and extremely weak in Oiii , however with some clever channel compositing and layering you can create some wonderful colour palettes with only Ha and Sii , and this image is no different. The golden hues are stereotypical HST palette and always provide character.
Well done !!
Martin
