Gaud Sad, for some one "new" to astrophotograhy, with the gear you have, and "not much knowledge" of PS, thats a very impressive effort (your kidding right, I bet you spent lots of time on this ).

Keep it up, Your heading for some seriously good work .

Sadia,

That is an excellent, excellent, excellent effort for a first time imager.

You'll go a long way.
