You grabbed some very nice detail, well done at a fairly high focal length.

As mentioned your color balance shifted but I did a quick adjustment to try and balance things a bit as well as adjusted curves to pull out a bit more detail lost in the dark areas. I'm not sure how the galaxy core got blown out but that's something to watch if you're stretching the image in Photoshop.
