Great Barred Spiral Galaxy Combined

In the quest to use up all my TelescopeLive credits, I opted for something different this time. I decided to get the new data from the CMOS setup on this galaxy and combine it with the old CCD data that I already had. I have to say, I think the CCD data is sharper, but it is what it is.

At any rate, I think it worked out. I went from about 9 and a half hours of integration time with the old CCD data to about 15 and a half with the combined CMOS and CCD data and it made a decent improvement in SNR while giving me more to work with. Unfortunately a fair bit of the original field of view had to be cropped as the new data does not cover it. I gave this a pretty good go and that will probably be the last I see of the Great Barred Spiral Galaxy unless I end up in Australia myself.

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.
