I’ve been very hesitant to post this one but I’ll let you guys comments tell me if I should have posted it.

Have you ever had an image that you’re just not happy with no matter what you do with it? Boy this is one of them for me! I've processed this data now 4-5 times over the last 2-3 days and really am not happy with what I'm getting as a final result. I've tried many different versions and this HSO version is about the only one that I can is well "ok". While the HSO version is a different color scheme that we normally see this image in I did feel of all the different version of it this one showed the best detail in the core of the planetary. The SHO version is very close as well but opted to post this one.

I'd have thought 18hrs would have given me an easier data set to work with but this has not been the case for me.

One thing I will say is I do like how much detail around the main outer rim of the planetary there is.

I’m wondering if I may have over sharpened the luminance data when I added it back for detail so I may go back and start from scratch and give it another go. Just going to give myself another break and then see how I feel about this in a few days.

I welcome any and all comments on this as well as any tips you may have on processing this.

Thanks for looking!

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
