Hello, I shot this during four moonless nights in February and March. I tried to image it only during very good conditions to get most of the background galaxies. The dimmest I found is magnitude 20.
Annotated image can be seen on my blog:

Looks really good - very nice detail and even background sky. One to be proud of! I would maybe turn up the top of the red curve a littel bit as it looks, from my memory, a bit whitish for being the Markarian's chain. Check some other images of it.
