Caldwell 7 - NGC 2403 (Redone with PI)

Last one of my series: Learn PI by recycling old data ;) I am getting faster every time so my biggest complaint is getting invalid. Now I need to tweak the workflow (and the data) to get better results in the future. I feel that I am losing quite a bit of blue with this workflow but I couldn't find out exactly when that happens. It probably is the Photometry Color Calibration but the immediate result always looks ok. If anyone has a good idea it would be very much appreciated.

Here is my old version of NGC 2403, quite a difference I find:

Description: Redone again, this time stretch with ArcSinhStretch (thanks to Bart Delsaert for pointing me into that direction). A lot more saturation after the stretch and nicer star shapes.

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.
