Here is a picture I have put together with data from 4 different observatories.

Thank you very much Morten La Cour for fantastic data from your m82 https://astrob.in/403343/0/

And Askvang Observatory (Tommy) for M81 lum

Thanks to my frend Kristian Schlanbusch for good RGB data from Stjernebua Observatory Grimstad Norway

https://www.astrobin.com/full/382683/D/?image_list_page=2&nc=

The two galaxies are then put into our own Wide field data from SkyEyE Observatory https://www.astrobin.com/359031/?image_list_page=4&nc=&nce=

This is not a mosaic picture, but all the images are staraligned against the widefield image from SkyEye. Then I gently masked them different pictures into this.

All raw data(master) is edited by me separately.

The whole process is done only in Pixinsight

Will make an effort to add IFN too soon if I can

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.
