M96 in LRGB at 1850mm FL and f/14

Revision title: Some more work on the core and crop

As excited I was about my previous image which was full of (positive) surprises, well, as frustrated I was when processing this "little" challenge. Maybe the fact that I got some data during the moon being up made the task much more difficult. The images were taken with the 2x Powermate setup at 1850mm-f/14. I looked up some recent images of M96 on Astrobin and see that I am not alone, there are not many that reveal the beauty of this "beast". I also think that the integration time with this particular setup was not long enough. All previous targets had more, and under better conditions. I still think though that it was another successful trial with the 2x Powermate. One more of the Messier catalog in my collection, there are still many out there that I did not target so far, but I hope that I can get them all together one day.

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.
