Description

Markarian's Chain, the most prominent part of the Virgo Cluster.

Around 3 hours of integration during a very windy night. The accuracy of my guiding was bad due to the wind. But it was enough for an acceptable final image. And now I know that my AM-5 runs for 1 hour after meridian after an update.

80 x 2 minutes after deleting many too bad raw files due to wind and cloud coverage. ISO 800, Unmod. EOS R5 with my CF-90 refractor @ 432mm.
