The angles aren't great, but that's "thanks" to the lens. If you don't look too closely, the nebulae look quite decent, and even the dark areas are well-defined. Well, and the stars could use some separate processing. Liked.

Thank you very much. And what do you mean by "Well, the stars could also be processed separately"? What can be fixed or improved?

The stars have good color, but they could use some tightening up—right now they look a bit like blobs.
