Description

The Markarian's Chain through my Newtonian, with M86 as the center point of interest.
At my focal length, this is the framing I found most interesting to get as many really neat and appealing galaxies in a single frame without the use of mosaic.

Each night of integration involved some moon light, and I'd like to get more LRGB to help boost and clean up this image.  Perhaps it will be revisited before starting my next project for May 2024.

Modified mirror newtonian, 980mm focal length at F/4.6
