NGC 7380 The Wizard with OSC

The Wizard is one of the last projects that I had data to process and I had tabled this because I was not getting the definition and S/N that I felt was worth posting. These issues made it particularly hard to deal with the stars, which are many in this field. But I picked it back up after reading more on how to use StarNet for such issues and I hope that this is half decent at this point. It may be the last I post for a while, so what the heck! I do believe that with more and better data, this will be a good target for me to go after in the future.

Once again, very few subs on this one. A lot of my work on Astrobin is on relatively few subs since I am new to the art and, this being my first astrophoto rig, I am scanning the heavens for targets to see what works. The intent has been to try to hit multiple targets of interest during the rare nights that I have had to work with this year, take the subs, work up the images and see whether they are worth it for me to go back and get more data. The problem is the long periods (months) between stretches of decent imaging conditions where I live means that more often than not what I got on these "pilot" runs is all that I will get until next year.

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.
