Dusty Space Canvas (Reisis Michail)

Dusty Space Canvas

IC1275 together with Trifid & Lagoon nebulas, (M8-M20)
B2 scale, Kos island remote area, Greece

90' rgb with a plain Sony A7iii and no modifications
no dither
no guiding

IIRC these were the settings:
f/2,
640iso,
120" per exposure (roughly 45 exposures)

This Samyang 135mm lens is a beast. Together with the big pixels of Sony A7iii it quickly turned into one of my favorite portable setups.
I was lucky and the one I received performs great at f/2 without needing to lower the aperture.

I shot this back on last year, during late May. Me with couple of friends went to one of our favorite dark places to chill and shoot photos together.
It was a success! The conditions were great and helped us a lot capturing some "harder" details. We sat there and spent all the night capturing the nightsky, chatting and drinking beers.
Now, regading the picture, I enjoyed noticing the IC1275 region showing like this, especially with an unmod camera.
We always speak about nebulas and galaxies but what about dusts?
So much dust going around, and with a little use of your imagination you might be able to notice a frog :-) If you notice it, please write it on the comments!

p.s. This year I wanted to shoot it with me 1000mm telescope but the night I went to camp the weather didnt make me the favor. Oh well, the beers the company and sandwiches were great.

Any constructive feedback is greatly appreciated.

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.
