I think there is a second asteroid near the bottom left of centre....

If you mean the one that's flashing but not moving I believe it's only a hot pixel in the camera

This one seems to be moving though the screen res isn't great....

Will try to send you an annotated image.

You are absolutely right, I checked it in the original photo, you must have very sharp eyes Grant. I will try to identify it, I guess it's mag. 16.5 ! I also found another asteroid in the same photo of M45.
