NGC 3372- Eta Carina Nebula in Narrowband

My first attempt at a two panel Mosaic with the SV70T.

I chose Eta Carina as it's a nice big, bright target to attempt as a test over two nights.

2 hrs each of 15 min subs Ha O3 & S2, 3nm Astrodon filters, with RGB stars.

There is a register problem with the stars at 9 o'clock, not sure exactly what happened there yet!

I've done a basic DDP stretch on the stacks, and aligned them using MSICE, which I found to be better than photomerge in PS2017. But obviously, there's still some issues to resolve.

Happy to take direction and input on this, but I don't use pixinsight, and prefer mac based solutions. That being said, I used Bootcamp to generate the stitches in MSICE for this one.

Then the usual HST, Bob Franke colour palatte, Andyfied with NIK filters etc.

I'm not 100% happy with the framing on this yet, IMO it needs rotatng about 30-45 degrees, so I'll likely redo it and try to get it looking really nice, so be kind with your comments folks!

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.
