This is one I have never actually seen visually, even in my 8 inch!
Really nice colour detail there Dave, but it looks a tad out of focus. Seems like there is a tiny bit of trailing doing that, as the stars throughout seem to be oval shaped going from bottom-left to upper-right direction. While you have got a lot of red out of the nebula, I think perhaps you have overdone it because an awful lot of stars are also showing that red!
Still, you got the filament and dust detail in the nebula, which is really nice to see - overall, I like it!

Great detail Dave, Like Seanie said.
The tracking is a tiny bit out, but hey, I know from experiance that this is a difficult object to get.
