Sh2-091 medium field of view--negative (erdmanpe)

Sh2-091 medium field of view--negative

The thin wisps of an apparent super nova remnant, including Sh2-091 (the "bright" filament at bottom right) . The filament near top center is Sh2-094. Sh2-093 and Sh2-095 are in the upper left of the image. The combination of them almost allows one to imagine a complete loop of filaments similar to the structures of the spectacular Veil nebula, but things are a bit dimmer here. Most of the other structures don't seem to have designations that I found in my admittedly limited search. There are so many stars that the negative seems the best way to view the region (field of view ~3.5x5 degrees). Log and gamma stretches applied in Maxim.

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.
