I'd say it should be smaller than 1000km on a good night - maybe 1 km...

Got me thinking - I found this interesting thread on Cloudy Nights

It appears that around 1km is the limit for earth-based scopes, so you're images are pretty much the best possible case scenario, because I'm pretty sure some of those features are 1km or even slightly less. The Dawes limit comes into it, as does contrast, blah blah, but good on you for using that technical excellence to capture such beautiful images.
