Nice work, Dan. I think you could push the saturation a bit on the Ha version. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Gregg. I wasn’t real happy with the Ha version so I held out for luminance. With few exceptions, it seems like my camera is weak in Ha and I think it has a better QE than yours.
I tried to saturate after reading this but it seemed to make the nebula a very odd red and pulled the red out of the background.

There is a significant amount of fainter Ha in the background:
