NGC3503 and NGC3572 in Carina in SHO

Another one that needs more data, but after a week of solid rain and at least 10 more days on the way decided to post what I have now. Might become a wider mosaic as there's a lot on offer around this.

A different palette for me, more to get some variety than any good reason. It's a Ha rich region so that dominates hence the green dominance here (mapping Ha to green).

Stacked as S, H, and O channels in APP and a basic RGB combine in APP for a TIF Iand then instead of my usual process in Startools I took the APP TIF straight into PS CC. I wanted to preserve stars so used Star exterminator to create a starless layer, then ran a difference to get just stars... did my stretching and processing in PS on the starless layer...trying to get that luminous 3Dish look. Then blended back the stars using "screen" blend mode. I have some guidance on how I might do all this in Startools for similar effect so will be experimenting further with that in fture.

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.
