M81 & M82 with SN2014J

Sono particolarmente affezionato a questa immagine risultato di una notte in solitaria al Piano dell'Armà a -5C negli ultimi giorni di Febbraio 2014.

Ho deciso di soffermarmi nella località per sfruttare la terza nottata di ripresa, notte serene sono state rare dall'inizio dell'anno. Il cielo ha raggiunto una oscurità del 21.15 e un ottimo seeing. La guida é stata eccellente.

Il freddo mi ha tenuto compagnia tutta la notte raggiungendo dei momenti critici di sopportazione, l'automobile si é trasformata in una cella frigorifera.

Spero di aver svolto una buona elaborazione a coronamento della breve vacanza!

I am particularly affectionate to this image resulted of a night in solitary to the Piano dell' Armà in last days of February 2014, the temperature was -5C.

I decided to stay in the place to make the most of the time with the third night of astrophotography , night serene they have been rare from the beginning of the year.

The sky has reached an obscurity of the 21.15 and a good seeing. The guide was excellent.

The cold keeped me company the whole night reaching some critical moments of patience, the automobile became a cold storage room.

I hope to get a good processing crowning the short vacation!

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.
