IC2162, Sh2-254, LDN1576 in Orion - LRGB

Revision title: LRGB version 2

A rich starry field in one of the arms of Orion contains this little gem which is composed of a number of objects from emission nebulae to a very warped background galaxy - PGC1545363 - to some extended dark regions.

Another shot with a mix of luminance from the old Moravian G4 (1x1) and the new C5 (2x2). Acquired with Voyager Advanced in Array mode in November, December 2022. Some high clouds in the last couple of nights of acquisition meant the brighter stars have large halos around them.

For a beautiful close-up of this region see Michael von Berner-Purgstall's version here or Michael Feigenbaum's here.

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.
