I did another version as well but this one I preferred. There is a ton of Ha in this region and that is red. It could be presented in more of an LRGB to get those other hues you mention but even with straight LRGB this one wanted to come out red. The Baader filters do have a strong red response more so than other filters. I am not always a fan of Ha as luminosity as it often detracts from the image rather than adding. In this one I think there is a small amount of Ha as luminosity but it quickly washes out colour and gives the dreaded salmon colour easily as well. You also lose your stars brightness and colour. It can be quite costly.
