LDN1622 - The Boogey Man Nebula Wide Field

LDN1622 is in a beautiful region located in the Orion molecular cloud complex. The nebula itself lies roughly 500 light years away from Earth. That is rather close when compared to the nearby famous Orion nebula which is 3x further away at 1,500 light years. LDN1622 is a small area of dark and reflection nebula only about 10 light years wide. Its relative close proximity makes it appear large relative to the other more distant nebulae in the region.

I am slowly working through a data backlog. This data was captured with the FSQ106 in early January. At the same time my larger RiDK400 was capturing a close up of LDN1622, that can be found here: https://www.astrobin.com/94tjwy/E/

Hope you like it.

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.
