Description

The chain with my SV70T. From my backyard, Red Zone, Bortle 7, mag per arc sec squared low 18s.

No (not so) magic light pollution filters were used, just a simple AutomaticBackgroundElimination in PixInsight.

Be sure to click on it for lots of small galaxies. They go down to approximately Mag 15, distances up to several hundred million light years.
