Stunning pic. You certainly pulled it all together well and don’t look too rusty at all! Great job

Thanks! But trust me, based on my attempts this weekend to work with some of my older data from 2020 suggests that lightning does indeed strike only once!
Being reflective, maybe there is something to a decent break helping overcome bad practices... being rusty forced me to play with things to try to remember what they did, that's let me focus more on what looks good now rather than what has worked for me in the past.
I also started to play with narrowband just as the pandemic started, and have really enjoyed the light pollution fighting attributes of really narrow filters and when processing its liberating to basically present the results how you want them to look rather than worrying about colour accuracy or other objective correctness. It allows you to be artistic in rendering the data (and I say that as a totally non-artistic person!).
My broadband imaging, however, is a complete disaster.
