I came across free downloads from Depp Sky West and decided to give them a shot. Due to the lack of clear sky for weeks on end, I am grateful to have some data to process. It is also an opportunity to see what imaging at a truly dark sky site would be like, as well as imaging a target of the southern sky that I can never access in the northern hemisphere. I started with the most difficult data set, IMO--LRGB of this iconic nebula, which I have not seen all that many examples of. I have seen many more narrow band images. I decided to crop the center as the starfield gets pretty distracting in the full image. The palette was very tricky--it wanted to tend toward purple, which I felt was probably not right. Its great dat, but LRGB of emission nebula can be very tricky to make look decent., no matter how good the data and how much data there is.

the Data was collected with a TOA 150 and 16200 camera based in Chile (Atacama Desert).

LRGB L24 900 sec, R 24 900 sec, G: 14 900 sec, B: 24 900 sec

I have seen some images of this data on the DSW web page and am wondering if they had additional data. It doesn't seem possible to create those versions using this data. If it is....I need to stop wasting my time

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.
