The photo with the trees on the R/H side was a single 2 min tracked shot.

The other two shots were 45sec x 15 shots registered and stacked in Deepskystacker with 15 x darks as well

Nice captures
Totally agree, I think it's in a bright part of the milky way, the tail would be way more visible if it was against a darker sky. Perhaps when it fades and moved away from the Milky way it will still look ok.
