Description

Another late-night filler while finishing off December objects: Markarian's Chain plus some other nearby galaxies.

This is straight up true color.

Not a whole lot to say about it, really.  It's a whole bunch of galaxies!

Can't see the black hole at the center of M87, probably need a bigger scope for that.
