Markarians Chain

[Carl]

Photographed back in May, not the easiest of targets. Located to the Nth West and unfortunately located towards Albury Wodonga.

Still worth a go. I just love the fact we can get so many galaxies in one field of view.

It's a great image Carl :thumbsup: The IIS compression doesn't do it justice having seen this one in person. Must image this area myself one night if I can ever drag myself away from my landscape astrophotography.
