M16, Eagle nebula (HOO - "Hubble Palette inspired look" L Extreme edition)

M16, Eagle nebula: Redone with the Hybrid HOO techniques to achieve the OSC Hubble inspired "look" (slightly cropped)

Approximately 7000 light-years away. The newborn stars in the Eagle Nebula are very hot, which illuminate M16’s hydrogen gas as seen in the Pillars of Creation, made famous by the Hubble Space Telescope. These intense pillars are slowly evaporating under the intense glare of the nearby massive, newborn stars. The Pillars of Creation appear relatively small within the nebula itself, but in actuality, they are larger than our entire solar system.

Data: Added new data from last week to the previous stack, integrated, processed and post processed in Pixinsight and touched up in Paintshop pro for clarity and vibrancy:

10 x 240sec light subs (L Extreme, last week)
10 x 300sec light subs (L Enhance, last month)
24 x 180sec light subs (L Enhance, last month)
30 x 180sec darks
30 x 240sec darks
20 x 300sec darks
30 dark flats for each set of 30 auto flats

Equipment used: SW ED100 esprit Triplet Apo on HEQ5 Pro mount with ZWO 294MC Pro main cam and ZWO 120mini guidecam, 60mm guidescope, ASI Air plus, Optolong L enhance filter, ZWO EAF, Bathinov mask, dew heater straps and powered by two Jackery packs.

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.
