You definately captured a nice bit of detail. though like hagar said the focus is soft, try using a batinof mask or FWHM output to get better results.

One other thing to try instead of taking 30 x 2 min the poor old dslr isn't extremely sensitive, try 20 * 5 min you will capture alot more detail and a bit more Ha. over all good work.

My general workhorse for the canon dslr is 10 - 20 min per shot though i am still learning i just find that you get a nice amount of data in that slot coupled by many photos your on a winner.
