M45-Pleiades

Well, my first image is ready, which I made with my tools installed in Nerpio in a quick processing. I owe a big part of this to my friend Zoltan Kiraly, who not only helped me a lot with the settings of NINA, which was completely new to me, but I also owe a lot to his knowledge and helpfulness in the use of Pixinsight and the correct composition of the images.
This is my first picture of M45-Pleiades, in which there are incredible small details, e.g. small galaxies are also clearly visible. At the moment, due to the moon, I am leaving the continuation until January, but for me this is already a huge achievement. Unfortunately, I could not yet take Flat and Darkflat pictures outside, so I only used Dark and Bias.

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.
