Cygnus Wall in SHO (Hubble Palette)

The summer has proven challenging weather-wise here in the UK. The original plan was for 5 hours each of SII, Ha and OIII on this object. I got pretty close to completion last night before the clouds rolled in. I have decided to call it therefore, even though I am still 4 subs short of target. This is my Esprit 120, with QSI 690 atop a Mesu 200 in my home observatory.

Data captured between 27 May and 19 August 2017. Jings that is one image per quarter - told you it had been challenging.

B

Description: Significant rework. More fine detail in black dust and better colour balance.

D

Description: Significant rework. Extracted Lum from SHO (RGB) image. Then removed stars from 'RGB' image, and wored on Lum and RGB separately. This allowed me to be a bit bolder with the colours and show some detail (via the extracted Lum).

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.
