Title: Starless version
Description: Testing the new version of Starnet, I processed again this image. I must say, the results are indeed impressive!

Description:
Okay, I swear, this is the final revision - for now.
Actually, this is basically the starless version with the stars in it, along with some minor star reduction. The most awesome thing is that I cannot discern any star artifact at all - cheers to the developer of Starnet, Nikita. You deserve all the praise for the absolutely fenomenal tool you made!

Description: I again revised this image. The objetctive was to add more color variety to it. As I used a Dual NB filter, this is neither a true color nor a true HOO pallete. I tried, through processing, approximate it to a natural-faux HOO color balance, by injecting a little Ha into the Blue (OIII) to simulate the Hb emission. Some color masking and curves later, and there's a lot more blue/purple in the central zone where there's supposed to be more Oxigen. Finally, I made deconvolution work better, with a huge improvement in sharpness as a result.

Title: Revision 19-07-2022
Description: Again, a new revision. I was never quite satisfied with the previous revision. Although it was an improvement over the first ones, the Ha regions ended up too pink, the core was washed out, and the stars were terrible. For this one, I revised from the start. I aimed for a faux-HOO pallete, which was pretty hard to get. I think the colors are alright, and the core has more depth now, though the hue is still not 100% perfect. One big improvement in this image is the stars - they now have color and are better integrated with the base image.

Title: Revision 19-07-2022
Description: This is the third revision today - I do think this is the final one though. Who would've thought that processing an image with this kind of dynamic range would be so difficult? For the final revision, I also used the HDRMultiscaleTransform, which worked WONDERS for the core.

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. |
This image cannot be submitted for the IOTD/TP consideration.
