Matt,
Great shot!
It must've been nice to have no distractions when setting up, etc. I have my sons hassling me to look through the scope before I've happily drift aligned the beast so image exposure times tend to be on the short side!!
As for rogue puppies - part of my pre-viewing/imaging ritual is to check for little surprises that our little mutt may have left in the vicinity of my scope. Nothing spoils a night quicker than stepping in you-know-what!!
Keep up the good work image wise,
Cheers,
Mario
