Hi Rob. This is a very nice image. The QHY8 does a great job on targets such as this and you have captured it very well.
I had a little play with your image. I hope you don't mind. All I did was stretch a little more of the red channel in curves, dropped the brightness a touch and moved the histogram a little more to the left and balanced the colours using levels. The white or blue white stars are very bright and make adjusting them on this image imposible. You may want to look closely at the way you apply curves and keep the brightness down a bit.
Hope this helps.
