Makarian´s Chin is best at this time of the year - unfortunately the moon was at 70% and only 13degrees apart from the target - this resulted in a brightened up background, moonlight as straylight, reflections etc. A lot of problems to correct to get a final image...not as detailed as it should be because high fog and thin clouds covered the entire region.
A lot of Photoshop editing was necessary to get the moon reflections out and the resulting differences in darkness of the background - you should have seen the original stack - a desaster. But I wanted to get some result at least... hoping for a night without that much moonlight (other nights clouds and/or rain)

My very first attempt to get a result out of my newly acquired RASA 11 with an ASI2600MC....

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.
