Description

Wow, that's what I felt when I started processing the Markarian's Chain photo.

The vastness of the cosmos is demonstrated by the image, dozens of galaxies, some 50 million light years away, others much more distant, where I only managed to register a diffuse light. One of my favorite photos!

I strongly advise you to zoom in on the universe!
