Hi Anthony,

I was out at the same time, tuning the 16" Dall-Kirkham and trying to achieve first light after the rebuild, and the seeing was not too bad. You can see my Aristarchus in the ATM section.

You need to use a focal extender if you want to get the full resolution that a 12" should be capable of. Other than that, your image is processed nicely without over sharpening. Perhaps it can be brightened a bit more.
Your imaging was done at 3000mm and mine, also at prime focus, but at 6500mm focal length.

Last night the seeing was worse, so I did not bother.
