Description

The Markarian’s Chain, a beautiful chain of galaxies in the constellation of Virgo. I spend 24h in this target to get all the nice faint details. Although a bit limited for the color camera I think the end result turned out very good. Also Drizzle 2x to get a higher resolution image and be able to crop in some of the nicest galaxies.
