Hercules Galaxy cluster including IC 1179

This is a first time doing a galaxy cluster for me. This image has 122 catalogued galaxies - the additional images circle each galaxy and provide the names and labels for each galaxy. This cluster is in the constellation of HerculesIf you can find the red circles there are several interacting galaxies where 2 (or more) galaxies are interacting (IC1179 in the middle left, IC1178 in the lower left, NGC 6040 in the middle right) Some of the galaxies with the IC label were identified and catalogued in 1888 - way before we had all the cameras and gadgets I used here.EdgeHD 11" (280 mm) SCT at f/78 h 20 min total.EdgeHD 11" (280 mm) SCT at f/7 (FL=1980mm) 0.78 as/pix, bin 2 on a ASI2600mm 20x300 RGB, 35x300 L

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.
