NGC891 and surroundings, including part of Abell 347

NGC891 (estimated distance: 32Mly, source: simbad.u.strasbg.fr) is a beautiful object in Andromeda, surrounded by a picturesque sky background, rich of galaxies. The closer ones belong to Abell 347 cluster (in the top right end corner NGC898, NGC909 , NGC911, NGC906, NGC914), with an average distance of 200-300Mly.

Many other PGC objects visible here are further away, projecting our sight and mind in the depth of space and time.

The image has been recorded from my backyard under Bortle 6 suburban sky.

This is one of the first images I have ever processed with PixInsight - your comments and processing suggestions are very welcome!

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.
