First Test of an LDN object - LDN 1235 - The Shark Nebula

I had multiple first lights on friday evening. I spent the majority of the time with my EdgeHD8 getting familiar with everything. it is 100% new to me along with first use of NINA. while i was so focused on this new imaging rig / setup, i also had first light with my new ASI2600mm on my Redcat51. i pointed it at what is an impossible object for me, and let it run for the night. I am very excited with the data i got, i am now going to do a full capture of it over the next month (as clear skies allows.) this is the test resiult on LDN1235, the Shark Nebula. this is on my bucket list for a very long time.

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.
