RCW19 and some cometary globules

The last three nights have been clear here, but unfortunately the moon has been full/nearly full. I though I would see how deep I could do with NB imaging, trying to stay as far away from the moon as possible. [Not far it turns out as the moon is pretty far south at the moment]. I also wanted to try something really new, so I chose an object for which I can find no NB images on Astrobin. There is a lovely IOTD by Thomas V. David in broadband, which inspired me to give this lesser known RCW object a shot, and to include the lovely cometary globules on the same frame. Quite a squeeze I will admit.

I turned out better than I expected (I wasn't expecting much) but I really do need a bigger mono camera. And one that doesn't give such large halos in [OIII], although here they look quite photogenic

Title: 2.5years on - a new revision

Description: With 2.5 years more experience in processing, and much better tools available. I was never going to rescue a poor composition [tried to get too much in the frame] but at least it is better processed.

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.
