Lagoon and Trifid nebula from Sydney

Here is the images of Trifid & Lagoon nebula taken last Friday. I am in learning phase and this one is my best one. Both images were processed in DSS and GIMP. Coma corrector applied using GIMP lens distortion feature. To bring out more details I applied auto white balance, but this cause the central part burn out in both images.

Image Description:

GSO 8" f/4 newtonian RA motorized eq mount.
Canon EOS 400D
40 frames @ iso 1600 and 20 sec exposure.

Your feedback will be important to improve further.

Thanks you.
