Revision title: IC 1318 - Sadre region and Crescent Nebula - Hubble type

I am quite new to this hobby. I had the chance to get rather 2 hours of light on IC 1318. I am also trying to develop my skills on postprocessing.
This was the third object since I began deep sky astrophotography.

Please feel free to give me some advice on how to improve or do better ...

Title: IC 1318 - Sadre region and Crescent Nebula - Hubble type

Description: Hello friends of the night!
I discarded the last session's data for this target entirely due to inaccurate framing of the Crescent Nebula.
Due to the few clear skies, the new data consists only of dual narrowband recordings with the L extreme filter.
The new integration consists of 16 x 600s (total time: 2h 40mins) lights, 50 flats and flat darks each, and 100 biases, taken on 08.07.2023.
I once tried Bill Blanshan's Narrowband Normalization Pixelmath V5 and I find the result quite appealing with a Hubble-type look.
Feel free to write me again in the comments if you like it or not and give me tips to get better...
Clear skies to all of you

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
