Nice repro. One way to reduce the blue halo is to use the sponge tool set to desaturate and 50% and rub on the areas you want to reduce the colour of.
Similarly the core star area of the blue reflection neb is a bit overblown so shadows/highlights lassoed to that area only or curves to get the core data back.
Overall a very nice image. That is the max you will get out of that without more exposure time which is too little (120 30 30 30 is not enough for the Horeshead - maybe 4 X that to get it really smooth).
Also shooting luminance is best done with no filter or a clear filter.
Greg.
