Thanks for all the comments guys, I really appreciate it.

I have blended the Ha with the Red channel, normalised the three colours and combined in CCDStack. Saved as tif and touched up in PS.

If I try to blend in the Ha as luminance I always get the same salmon pink as the nebulosity colour. This looks better, but is it more correct?

There's a really good article on this somewhere, but I can't find it ATM.

Anyway, here's the reprocessed version.

Cheers
Stuart
