I suspect my response needs some explaining.
These are well known bright nebulae that are great to image.
They all have natural yet subtle colours that show the physical processes going on within them.
Adding "extra" intensity to a particular emission line can easily mask this.
There is no doubt that you've created an eye soothing set of images
but to me, they are almost duo-colour, with all of the subtle star colours,
absorption and emission processes masked as a result.
So it comes down to whether you like accuracy/fidelity, art or popular appeal.
There are no rules....more a case of a rising tide (i.e. popularity) can float many boats.
