Revision title: Re-process with new tools

This will perhaps be the last image of the season, unless exceptional nights materialize. At this time of the year, only a few hours of real darkness is available at my location, so I will likely pause over the summer and resume the hobby in the fall.

The 2021/2022 season has been a really good season for me, and I finally upgraded to a real astro camera, and a real mount, and here at the end, a real telescope. It does make a huge difference.

Thanks to all who looked at my images, I hope you enjoy this one as well: 2 nights of dual narrowband (for H-alpha) and 3 nights of broadband.

Clear skies!

Description: I was never happy with the amount of detail in the original edit, but I though my skills had developed enough for a re-process. Still far from perfect, but a significant improvement!

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.
