SH 2 - 129 LRGB HaOIII - With telescope Live Data Added

I knew this was going to be faint but I was surprised when I realized just how faint both the Ha and the O3 nebula portions are. This was taken from a Borte 3/4 site in the OBX and clearly needs ten times the exposure. Anyway I'm back in my Bortle 7 back yard now so its going to have to wait a while for more data. It was certainly fun processing what data I had. Shot with a tandem rig: Luminance/Ha/O3 FLT 91 and ASI 6200 MM, RGB Ha/O3 Z61 and ASI 2600 MM mounted on an iOptron GEM 28.

Luminance 60 mins
RGB 60 mins each
Ha 120 mins
O3 240 mins

Total exposure 10 hours.

Title: SH 2 - 129 Updated With 40 + hours of O3 from Telescope Live Data Set

Description: I took by RGB and Ha frames and merged them with the Ha and O3 from the telescope live data set to produce this image which is LRGB with Ha and O3 blended into the L R and B channels.

Description: I've never been happy with this image so after signing up for @adam_block Pixinsight horizons course I watched his tutorial on this subject and took another go. I think what really made a difference was running WBPP in PI on the O3 data it's just so faint that any unwanted signal really messes things up. One problem was I couldn't find any RGB star data on Telescope live so I used my own RGB data to combine with their data. I did try to generate RGB stars using SPCC and the HOO data but it didn't work as well as I'd hoped. Anyway I'm done with it...... for now!

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.
