Great shot. The red blobs are areas of intense new star formation.

Yes, the red blobs are star factories    

I had a couple frames with a H-Alpha filter, but the quality of those images weren't good, due to the light of dawn starting to effect the images.  Hydrogen, which is abundant in star formation areas, emits light at specific wave lengths, and one of the frequencies is called Hydrogen-Alpha.   

Also in general the weather wasn't all that great on Saturday night, there were clouds until midnight, so the individual stars are more "puffy"
