Revision title: NGC 6871 and WR 134, Revised

Finally accumulated enough data in-between monsoon storms and persistent cloud cover to process a 5 night long capture. In hindsight, I wish I would have centered on WR 134 rather than NGC 6871. Nevertheless, the rich nebulosity of the region made for an interesting SHO palette. I still have a long way to go with mastering processing but it's certainly a fun process.

Description: I decided to revisit my old data on this target to see if I could improve it. The original version has some deficiencies with the Oiii data in particular. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for some clear skies after a prolonged period of cloud cover.

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.
