Imaging session #22

First time I'm attempting a target that is mainly nebulosity.

My DSLR is unmodified so I wasn't sure what I would be capturing.

This would be the last time I'm using the Nikon for astrophotography.

During these sessions, I decided to purchase a dedicated Astro camera.

The Nikon has served me well, but it was difficult to justify spending so much of my imaging time managing the camera. I was still having problems powering the camera, despite having bought a powerbox. The summer temperatures were making it difficult to keep noise levels down. And since I couldn't manage the temperature of the sensor, a significant time each night would be spent taking darks.

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.
