At the beginning of June, I started to image IC5070, the Pelican Nebula. I knew I wanted to do a mosaic of the surrounding area and include NGC7000, yet this mosaic kept expanding as I saw the neat nebulosity on the edges.

30 days, 84+ hours of integration time, and 1014 subs I am moving on to O3 and S2. The cropped image comes in at 33,976 x 27,862 pixels, although presented here for size reasons is 6,801 x 6,857 pixels.

I am not happy with some banding I am getting with my ASI294mm, which if you zoom in you can see in some areas. I believe that this is a result of me doing 300 second subs on the majority of the frames rather than my typical 600 or 900 second subs. I need some more testing to validate this and may have to touch up some areas if time allows.

Next up will be a SHO and HSO version after I complete the data acquisition.

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.
