4 panel OSC on Carina . One small step forward in the learning curve.

Revision title: Carine in a second processing.

My second panel exercise, I did chose Carina because is large and very clear (luminous target).
So, the focus was on controlling the background, the stitch areas and a basic image processing. Regarding the later, the file is too big for my laptop using GIMP, so I could nod do the final touches regarding colour adjustment and contrast, the file was nearly 900 MB.

Title: Carine in a second processing.

Description: Yes, my new laptop could handle GIMP and the large files. This version of Carine is with better noise reduction as well as contrast and colour balance.

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.
