Orion Rising

Imaged Orion rising from rural Pennsylvania on the night of November 23, 2022. This super wide shot covers the stretch of the sky from Sirius, through all of the Orion constellation (with Bernard's Loop faintly showing), through the Hyades, the Pleiades, and finally the California nebula. Overall super dark skies that were a wonder to behold, but unfortunately some lights in the background left some significant gradients in the images at the horizon...

Imaged using a Nikon D5300 (full spectrum modified), IDAS HEUIB-II (H-α Enhanced UV IR Blocking) filter, and 14 mm Rokinon lens at F/2.8. Exposures were 20 seconds at ISO-1600.

Combined 39 subs using Sequator (composition = composition = align stars/freeze ground, auto brightness=ON, HDR=ON, LP reduction = ON/Level 2, enhance starlight=ON). Additional processing in PixInsight: generated starless image and stretched using generalized hyperbolic stretch (GHS), combined stretched starless and stars images, ABE background subtraction, curves transform, morphological transform, and HDR transforms.

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.
