This is one of my first test images made with my new camera. I was still searching for what gain and offset settings the camera liked best. The image data was pretty rough due to pesky things like flats not calibrating out properly because the camera was unhappy.

Things are slow for me right now due to the weather. I thought it was a good time to mine my hard drive for old unprocessed data sets to get more PixInsight practice. Even though there were numerous issues with these subs, it provided a great opportunity to throw in the kitchen sink at the processing. The first go at the processing was really rough looking. I am shocked that it came out as well as it did. It was a good learning experience.

The image is a LRGB mix with color calibrated stars.

83x300 sec Lum
82x300 sec Red
79x300 sec Green
75x300 sec Blue
26.6 hours total exposure

Now that my camera is dialed in, I plan to reshoot this object and good it it's due justice.

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.
