My first time I tried the wizard fog. Another picture I took with the Optolong L enhancer filter since I bought it in May this year. It makes it pretty easy to capture narrowband images with a color camera. However, the post-processing of such images requires further improvements, since I do not extract the individual RGB channels for editing. But while I was editing this image in Pixinsight, I noticed an interesting behavior. Because of the filter the picture is greenish after the stacking process. Now I have two options to continue editing. First, you start directly with background extraction, neutralization and color calibration. Then the green is removed and the fog appears red. Or secondly, by going through a SCNR first, then the picture turns yellow. For me its a nice effect, because you can work without extracting the RGB-channels to create a false-color image. My conclusion, I am very satisfied with the Optolong L enhancer filter, as it is a good alternative to mono cams and 3 single narrowband filters. Therefore, a cheaper option. Nevertheless, better quality can be achieved with individual filters.

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.
