That's a good attempt!
Pickering's Triangle is actually a very tough target - not nearly as bright as the East and West Parts of the Veil Nebula.

You've managed to bring out some of the fainter nebulosity, as usual with these things, more data would bring out even more. Maybe a subject to come back to. I attempted it once, the result wasn't nearly as good as this.
Duncan
I agree with Mark that this target is fainter than the East and West veils to capture. As discussed your FOV is actually to one side of Pickerings Triangle rather than the triangle itself.

Thanks all, comments appreciated and noted.
