First Light 300D Sag widefield

It's not just a first light, it's a first everything.
Never done this before, so please be gentle with me

Anyway, this was shot early Sun morning with 70% moon.
It is a stack(DSS) of two, one 30sec exposure and one 60sec, both at 400ASA. No darks, no flats. Shot in JPEG mode, forgot about RAW.... D'OH!
Postprocessing? Did some fiddling with it in Photoshop, but I really have no idea what I'm doing!!
No cropping, just reduced in size to meet IIS 200k limit, never realised how much effect this limit has on image quality!
Gear? 300D with Baader UV/IR cut filter, Pentax SMC Takumar 55/1.8 stopped down to f4. (probably too far)

Please feel free to comment, need all the help I can get!
Thanks for looking,
Simon
