It was taken using 100% 10Micron guiding (no guide camera). I've never shot this target before and wanted to see how the 10Micron performed, and it did flawlessly IMO. Goodbye chasing the seeing guiding!

Process:

Version 1:
Subframe Weighting
WBP - Debayer, Calibration, Register
Normalized Scale Transform
Image Integration
Split RGB
R=Ha
PixelMath: max(G,B) = OIII (reference)
EZ Denoise (defaults) for HA, OIII
EZ Soft Stretch HA, OIII
LRGB Combination (L=Ha, R=Ha, G=OIII, B=OIII
StarXterminator
CurvesTransformation RGB/K, Saturation
Create Luminance Mask
ColorSaturation (target the HA/OII in the nebula)
DarkStructureEnhance (very light)
Combine Image+Stars
DynamicCrop to 16:9 format

More versions are coming soon!

Description: 4:3 version also with a slight variance in the integration:
Linear Fit OIII as a reference applied to HA
PixelMath combine R=Ha; G=(Ha+OIII)/2; B=OIII

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.
