The Integrated Flux Nebula and Galaxies M81 and M82

The picture is the Bode Galaxy (M81), the Cigar Galaxy (M82), and the IFN (Integrated Flux Nebula) around them, which were captured before shooting the comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF). I tried shooting alternately with ASI2600MM and ASI2600MC with SpaceCat51 (aperture 51mm, focal length 250mm).

This is our first time shooting IFN together. Thanks to IFN, the picture feels richer. This time it's a test shoot, next time I'll gather more data to improve the quality.

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.
