You have a gold mine. As Ivo says you should stretch this carefully and you should have an excellent picture. As of now the image is lacking in colors except blue and some faint red. M33 should have more red overall with some large H-alpha regions (which are actually showing now) with some blue sparkles where hot young blue stars are located.
