Triangulum Galaxy M33 (Chris White- Overcast Observatory)

Triangulum Galaxy M33

First light with my 183mm Pro on the Edge. Its very oversampled at 0.21"/px, but I'm pretty stoked at the details I was able to bring out. This is going to be a super fun setup for galaxy season!

Description: Color re-balanced, a little boost in brightness and darkened the dust lanes.

I

Description: Processed the grainy BG to smooth it out. Interestingly, I don't think it was noisy so much as unresolved texture in the galaxy. For the sake of a pretty picture, I killed it for now until I can add more data.... if I add more data. :-)

Description: OK, Can't let this go. This time, no NR. I'm not used to imaging at this pixel scale, so I think I am being confused with noise. I think much of the granular structure is not actually noise, but rather stars and/or clusters in the galaxy that have not resolved yet due to limited integration time. So, even though it looks grainy, I think this is right. I also worked on the color balance. This one is at full resolution without downsampling.

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.
