Description

I wanted to take a picture of this stretch of galaxies since I first saw them in a photo. I am still fascinated by this chain, very happy to have a snapshot now.
I think I underestimated the need for more exposure time since I had to stretch it quite far. More integration time and a wider view for the next time, since I am sure I will visit this rollercoaster again.
