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.

I shot a wide field of the same object at

The colors I got in the photo were the exact same tint as Rob's original photo.
I'm just wondering how we got the color wrong. Does the color balance change with every different DSO you shoot?
