Nice one - I like the smoothness and detail in the galaxies.

A bit of blue around the stars - something to do with the filters? Perhaps a bit of star reduction would improve the image.

I'm just starting out with an IMX183 sensor camera and will be very happy if I can do as well.

looks good to me.  

Unfortunately we have now lost astro darkness for a while now at my location. So ill be using that time to make some tweaks to the imaging train too.
