That turned out quite well for your first galaxy image.

Overall very nice. You could crop the image to make the object centred.
A bit of noise but as you say more time would help that. There are techniques to reduce background noise though. But more data is always better than fancy Photoshopping.

The orange star is a bit oversaturated with colour otherwise the stars look good.

As you mention it would be hard to get anymore out of this one without more exposure time. Imaging with F9 and 8 inches of aperture
will mean patience and long exposures are needed.

Your setup is looking good.

Greg.
