Markarian's Chain - Wide Field

[AstroGS]

Just over 19 hours on Markarian's Chain and its companions - plate solving found over 50 galaxies, there might be even more.

This was with my Redcat 61 + 2600MM + Antlia filters.

Lum: 176 x 300 sec

RGB: 45 x 120 sec (each channel)

Calibration frames (flats, darks and bias): 50 each

Integrated and processed with PI and PS.

 

Note: I remain highly impressed by the ZWO AM5 that, continues to deliver excellent guiding as a permanent observatory mount.
