This is my second attempt at M33 (one year later), again from the Austrian Alps at 1600m ... unfortunately, it was a windy night (big stars :-)) and it took me hours to get my setup hauled up the hill and all running (even my trusted MGEN didn't boot up for an hour). The final pic is quite an aggressive crop of the true field of view (f=430mm with APS-C sensor size). Not optimal (though it did involve some lengthy processing), but the best I could make out of this 1 hour of exposure with this little scope.

I particularly like how the HII regions NGC588 and IC132 in this galaxy stand out ... ;-)

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.
