Thanks for your comments, all.

I've added a reprocessed version and got rid of the blue Hope it's more pleasing.

No cooldown, just put the 12" on and started. There was a 3° difference in temp between mirror and ambient which affected the local seeing.

It's getting harder to image just after sunset now, no time to cool the scope and it's right in the middle of happy hour.
