[left=kvgmc6g5 cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x c1et5uql ii04i59q]NGC 6992, the Eastern Veil nebula makes the top left quadrant of the Cygnus Loop, and is a large supernova remnant in the constellation Cygnus. The oxygen, sulfur, and hydrogen composition of this nebula make it a popular choice for deep sky astro photographers capturing images using narrowband filters.[/left][left=cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x c1et5uql o9v6fnle ii04i59q]Data acquired as part of the 6 panels mosaic, but stacked and processed in Pixinsight as an individual target, and touched up in Paintshop pro for final clarity and vibrancy:[/left][left=cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x c1et5uql o9v6fnle ii04i59q]15 x 180sec light subs30 darks and 30 flats[/left][left=cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x c1et5uql o9v6fnle ii04i59q]Equipment used: SW ED100 esprit Triplet Apo on HEQ5 Pro mount, ZWO 294MC Pro main cam and ZWO 120mini guidecam, 60mm guidescope, Optolong L enhance filter, ASI Air Plus, ZWO EAF, Bathinov mask, dew heater straps and powered by two Jackery packs.[/left]

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.
