Amazing Phil! Markarian's Chain is a wonderful area.

Here's some of the galaxy's in the shot - my eyes have gone wonky & I can't do any more . Anyone got any eye-drops?

Mike should give you a prize, coz I suspect that that's the most galaxies ever posted in one shot before!

Cheers -

Well done Phil!!!

I love imaging Markarians Chain
I'ts probably my 2nd favourite area. (Fornax/Eridanus being my favourite)

If you want another great area full of galaxies to image, try in Doradus. I have imaged dozens and dozens of galaxies in each FOV!!!!
