Jones Emberson 1 - Another "Now and Then"

This is another image of an object which I have imaged some time ago, while I was in the steep(est) phase of my learning curve. Compared to the previous "visit", I have basically switched everything, except the mount. I had an uncooled camera (although mono already), an SCT and LRGB filters. Now, it's with my RC8, cooled camera and narrow band filters.

By no means I'm trying to indicate that there isn't something to learn over the time, but I think that I am somehow converging to an asymptote of linear but continuous improvement. Now thinking about it, since starting this hobby in 2020, I feel I have done some path integral over (nearly) all possible things one can try.
At present I settled on an 8" RC8 (which captured this image) and a 81mm William Optics refractor for wider fields. Having sets of filters for LRGB and NB, I should be set to capture most of the things I am interested in.

Let‘s hope weather is friendly and allows many great images to come.

Feel free to comment!

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.
