Veil Bicolor Mosaic

This is a two panel mosaic of the Veil nebula and is also the first light for the FLI HP8300 with the Tak 106ED setup.

I am working on few issues figuring out this setup.

1.There is tilt in the frame.. Hoping to work on it once I get a precise part adapter and tilt adapter.. or it may end up needing a new focuser.. I am hoping a tilt adapter will do the trick.

2. Baader Ha filter was OK but the OIII 8.5 is too wide IMO. I Was having severe gradients to deal with (moon was still in play). After getting used to 3nm Astrodon, this is a bit of a bother. The contrast definitely suffered. I may end up getting Astrodon 3nm 36mm filter at somepoint.. but it will have wait.

I am very pleased with FLI HP8300 camera. It is super clean and cools to -30C in peak summer here in Austin.. (my other cameras could barely hit -10C ).

I shot his over a period of 2 week (Last week of July and first week of August). Each panel is roughly 6 hours.

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.
