Revision title: Redo of NGC3372 (with help from Dark Rangers Inc)

I've been at this hobby now for two years, and have already amassed nearly a full 8TB hard drive of data. I figured it was time to cull the stuff that was unusable and save some space, but in the course of doing so I discovered that I had several sessions on this target that I had never tried to combine into one image. Fortunately, I still had all the relevant calibration files (and in locations that made them easy to locate) so off I went, creating yet more data to find a place to store on that hard drive. While I was at it, I also put Adam Block's new Narrowband Color Matcher script to use.

Title: Redo of NGC3372 (with help from Dark Rangers Inc)

Description: I have shared this before, but I recently revisited the files with Ryan Boykin of Dark Rangers Inc (I won an "honourable effort" award for the image, which entitled me to a session with him to see what we could do with it). The most important thing that came out of this was the realisation that I had switched my H-alpha and S-ii filters, so all my "SHO" images were in fact "HSO"... Ryan did a great job of showing me some other tricks to do more with the data I have, and I'm really pleased with how it turned 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.
