While I am waiting to process the sulphur data I took last night (that didn't transfer to the flash drive like I thought it did!), I put together a two color version of HH 555. Still need to re-process the H-alpha to try to squish those elongated stars, but autoguiding is another story. Thanks for looking, and comments welcome.
