Rowland,
That's a great effort.
I agree entirely with Paul. The other thing is that your nebulae are over-saturated. What were your image details? Camera/guiding/exposure/scope, etc?
Christine, dangerous slipperyslope, indeed! How much money are you willing to spend? We'll get it out there at the onset: the telescope isn't the most important part of an astrophotographer's setup. The single most important piece of kit required to make nice images is a mount. A strong mount. A good mount. A sturdy mount. See where I'm going? : )
The telescope/camera comes afterwards.
