Tadpoles (IC410) - Aquarium View

This is an SHO (Hubble pallet) view of the Tadpole nebula, and is the second light with my SVX152T. It is about half a frame with the ASI6200, and has RGB stars. The narrowband stars were removed, and replaced with RGB stars reduced a bit and blended in. This represents about 28 hours total data, all shot from my Bortle 7 back yard, using an AP1100AE, ending 11/27/2022.

I cropped and rotated this to, for me, look a bit like an aquarium with the tadpoles swimming down into sea weed (ok, imagination is required).This was processed with pixinsight in a different fashion than I usually do, in this case using ColorCalibration on the narrow band rather than a straight combine with SCNR to shift out the greens. This yielded what to me are very nice colors, and especially since there were no stars to worry about, I went forward from there.

Overall I remain quite pleased with the amount of detail I'm getting from that 1200mm. While cropped out, the stars are sharp and round out to the corners of the full frame, and the detail rivals my SCT at 2800mm. Stellarvue knows how to make optics, apparently. My SCT is getting very worried about its future!

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.
