Title: NGC6888 - Bortle 8 with a Mak - 3hrs of data
Description: With 2 more hours of data from the original version. Still a work in progress.

Title: 7h12 of data
Description:
This is 7h12 of data - all taken as 15s lights because of the LP & moon brightness. Quite happy with the way the little ETX125 punched to be honest. But pausing this target now as 1700+ lights of 5Mb each took a l-o-n-g time on an old Mac.
I will upload a differently processed version of this data as another revision because of what that shows, but aesthetically I think is the final version (for the time being :) ).

Title: More heavily stretched 7h12 of data
Description:
I stretched this a bit further and its interesting to see more of the fainter nebulosity come out. I wonder if this is more O3-rich nebulosity being revealed (it certainly seems to map to it based on some narrowband images). Obviously 7h12 still too short but that's it for the time being.
I'm not sure which I prefer - this revision E or revision D.
Also, based on the comparative change of the image from revisions B and C (with half the data), is the incremental broadband data worth it?

Title: The FINAL version!
Description: I couldn't make my mind up between revisions D & E, so someone sensibly suggested "why don't you do it somewhere between them"! And it works - here Pixel Match combination of D & E in a relative balance that is better for my eyes. Now sayonara to the Crescent and on to the Dumbbell!

Title: Reprocessed with BXT2
Description: Reprocessed from scratch with BXT2. Still used the same overall process of PCC then SXT and then GHS separately on the images before recombining, Putting it through NXT. And some light tweaks in GIMP. So the colours won't be the same as previously, but I was more interested in seeing the improvement on aberrations and tilt after BXT2 and there it does make a difference.

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. |
This image cannot be submitted for the IOTD/TP consideration.
