This has been a struggle to acquire and process.

My original plan was to go deep on this target at high resolution.. However, during the time I had good seeing, the moon was large and bright and couldn't shoot any broad band (ended up shooting M1) and everytime I tried shooting L on this target, the seeing was terrible and I had to eke out subs out of multiple nights.

The color data had horrible gradients as well as I did bad framing (or may be it was mirror flop and I had badly framed images as well that had to be discarded). I pushed the processing as much as I could but it has fallen well short of my target. I will keep trying to collect data but the forecast isn't looking good and the target is going to hit meridian early before long (and I cant shoot past it).

The stars are big and fluffy.. cant do much about up ... If only I had some good seeing on moonless nights.

Version B: Collected more L subs and threw out a bunch of less quality subs

L - 162*3 mins

R/G/B - 50/60/55 * 3min

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.
