NGC 7635 - The Bubble Nebula in Cassiopeia (in HaRGB)

This image was captured over two nights in mid-October 2023 using an ASI2600mm Pro through an Explore Scientific 127ED on an EQ6-R Pro mount.

The image comprises:

Ha: 61 x 180s
R: 20 x 180s
G: 20 x 180s
B: 20 x 180s

Total integration time was six hours and three minutes. The image was processed in Pixinsight and tweaked in Photoshop.

The Bubble Nebula has always been a favorite target, and while I know that the SHO palette reveals much greater detail (especially in the Bubble itself), I have always remained partial to a more traditional style image ... like the ones I would see in astronomy guidebooks when I was a teenager just getting excited about things in the sky. Those were the images that attracted me to astronomy in the first place and drove me to try and capture my own.

It is very satisfying to know that I can capture such images today.

Note: This image has been cropped to show just the Bubble Nebula itself.

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.
