Managed to grab a couple of hours last night with my newly modded 550D and star adventurer mount.

46x30 secs @ 135mm f/4 Iso 1600 with darks, flats and bias. Processed in Pixinsight

Wow nice star color. If you use Annie's astro actions you can process stars and background separately. Or just do a manual star removal layer and then Blend it back together. This allows you to stretch the stars less, and pull out more nebula. Great job though, looks like you are off to a great start!
