SUMMARY
Spectacle cannot take a screenshot of my secondary monitor (DisplayPort), screenshotting on my main monitor (HDMI) works just fine.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Spectacle
2. Take a "Current Screen" screenshot on the secondary screen 

OBSERVED RESULT
Spectacle crashes/refuses to take a screenshot, an error saying "Could not take screenshot" appears after taking another screenshot on my main monitor.

EXPECTED RESULT
Spectacle takes a screenshot just fine.
