A great great image this one, amazing deep with a fraction of the exposure I had on mine and some very fine details visible with the extra plus of the tiny sn on ngc 1365.. definitely a fantastic picture 
Can't see what you are going to produce with a dome to protect your scope from the wind but be aware that having a fixed observatory is the first step toward a total astrophotography laziness

Ha ha, yes, dark skies, 12" at F3.8 and with a bit of QE in the camera and going deep is much easier..still having to set up half my gear each session, this does make life easier = very deep LRGB images in a single clear night rather than several
The dome will prevent the wind being an issue and make more nights useable..of course the dome can produce its own local seeing effects too so I will have to see what happens there.
