Could be the sensor heated up more and became noisier.

Interesting theory. I'll have to check to see if subsequent photos that night get progressively redder/noisier/more sharpened.

One way around it might be taking multiple short images, e.g. 5-second shot then pause for a second, median blending them in post. The sensor gets a bit of break in between, might help?

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll definitely try giving the camera a break between long exposures and see whether that helps the issue.
