Markarian's Chain is a stretch of galaxies that forms part of the larger Virgo Custer in the constellation of Virgo. The two bright galaxies on the lower section of the chain are M84 and M86 discovered by Charles Messier in 1781. In this field of view approximately 30 identified galaxies are visible making it a spectacular target to image.

A combination of 10 nights imaging in January and February 2022 and May 2023 using two different cameras. 2022 images were taken using a mono camera and 4 filters, 2023 images were taken using a colour camera and a single filter.

Imaging and processing details can be found on my Astrobin page at: astrob.in/full/zy1fpo/0/

1849 375m long Széchenyi Chain Bridge over the Dunabe river which takes you from Buda to Pest or vice versa.

This was in the Winter of 2018 and was a great trip to Budapest. I can stil remember this outing at night because it was cold and I was walking for hours taking pictures and I had my tripod on me and it was just so quiet in the city. I was staying in a beautiful hotel in a very old building right next to the Liberty Bridge. I see it still exists, it's called The Butterfly Home. Friendly people, beautiful city... great city trip.

European city trips in winter are nice. Less crowds, lower prices and I don't mind the cold. I'm thinking about going the Bucharest this winter.

this is a small chain hanging off of a fire hydrant.

Didn't think I'd find a chain that was worth photographing for the group. ..but found this in my messy drawer... a keychain .. and with a star, too!

I made this photo imagining it to be the possible cover for a future music album of us.

In Slowakije a chain is hanging in the tree. Very intriguing.

Thanks for taking time to comment, fave and look at my work. I really appreciate.

A chain is made of many pieces or at least two pieces.

I had a look around for something eye catching for today's theme. I found this broken watch in a jewellery box, it was then a challenge to get the light and background to suit.

just to stop the boats drifting away when the tide returns

Chain of love got its name from its heart-shaped flowers

Have a good week, everyone!

2nd trip to lulworth last night in a row as the 1st one was quite blowy and was determined to get sharper stars with the tracker

Typical weather apps giving misleading information i took it apon myself to look out the back door and make my own judgement as to wether i would venture out , and so glad i did despite a couple small clouds unlike the the apps saying 70% and more cloud cover

i managed to get some new composition and a bunch or tracked sky images

The 1st night i shot these boats one was behind the other and it wasnt a great comp but last night they were already waiting to be photographed perfectly placed and pose
