Carina and Orion - first time

Hi all, my first post here

Took these last night with my Meade SN8 and Canon 400D, I'm new to imaging and havn gotten the tracking perfect yet, so quite elongated stars, plz criticise it

Eta Carina: 40x30sec subs at ISO1600.
Orion: 68x30sec ISO1600; 3x30sec ISO 800; 7x30sec ISO400; 3x30sec ISO200

Both were combined with darks, flats, bias and stacked with DeepSkyStacker.

With 30sec at ISO1600, light pollution is quite dominant (since I live in suburbian Melbourne), is LP filter a good investiment?

thx
