Did a further 50 minutes worth last night of 5min subs (it was 1 hour but 2 were unuseable because of planes)  and added them to the 3 1/2 mins subs done last night.

10 x 5mins @ 800 ISO
3 x 3.5 mins @ 800 ISO
+ darks flats and bias
Skywatcher ED120 Pro, guided with PHD and QHY5
Modified Canon DSLR EOS 450D and CLS filter

That's beginning to look really good.  Those extra subs have made a big difference.

Lovely image.

I'd agree with Mark plus the colour balance looks about right.
