Widefield NGC7000 RGBL

Well the RGBL 1st light with the Canon 200L setup at F/4 does show that a little more of a stop down might be good for stars. Blue especially wanted to bloat. Image was processed in PI with a 2x drizzle but reduced to about 0.56 before making this jpeg. I have not figured a way to productively use the Ha with the RGBL because the Ha stars are so tiny in comparison. I guess a wide field HSO might be the thing to do. Shot with occasional passing clouds and haze unguided but used ACP's unguided dither. This little lens is sure fun to use! At any rate the new focus motor install seems rock solid.

Description: This is the exact same data with the difference that the new PixInsight 1.8.5 release has an amazing new PhotometricColorCalibration tool. It is almost automatic.. Servers are searched and a plate solve done and the ratios are set in the linear RGB!! I started from my raw linear RGB, entered the image info.. focal length, pixel size (/2 as I had a2x drizzle), RA and DEC. Drag the triangle over and that is that. Check it out!!

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.
