Visiting M51 with my 130EDF and barlow combination every year at this time. I decided to try some unfiltered data as my zenith is not too bad for light pollution. I then added some halpha courtesy of the STC dual narrowband filter. Imaging with the 130/barlow is an f/12 system. Really challenging with an STC filter in place. I did do some captures at 300 gain for experimentation. I just love this galaxy. I will be posting a video about this capture soon to my YouTube channel. Thanks for looking.

Acquisition info:

About 2 hours of unfiltered data at f12

2 hours of filtered data from 2019 with the CLS filter at f12

2 hours of STC dual narroband filter at f12

Varying gains used from 120-300

Exposure times 900 seconds with few exceptions.

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.
