Does that scope use a correcting lens between the secondary and camera?
Looks like it from the reflections I see on very bright stars.

Correct domain name is arvig and it is net not com. Prefix is correct.
Third character is a zero rather than a capital "Oh".

Great picture, quite amazing to get this in one shot. I have a similar field
with a five piece mosaic.
