The Széchenyi Chain Bridge is a suspension bridge that spans the River Danube between Buda and Pest, the western and eastern sides of Budapest, the capital of Hungary. Designed by the English engineer William Tierney Clark, it was the first permanent bridge across the Danube in Hungary, and was opened in 1849.
It is anchored on the Pest side of the river to Széchenyi (formerly Roosevelt) Square, adjacent to the Gresham Palace and the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, and on the Buda side to Adam Clark Square, near the Zero Kilometre Stone and the lower end of the Castle Hill Funicular, leading to Buda Castle.
The bridge has the name of István Széchenyi, a major supporter of its construction, attached to it, but is most commonly known as the Chain Bridge. At the time of its construction, it was regarded as one of the modern world's engineering wonders.[citation needed] It has asserted an enormous significance in the country's economic, social and cultural life, much as the Brooklyn Bridge has in New York and United States of America.

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.

By artist, Charles Gaines. Per the description the box is like the hull of a ship. It’s 110 feet long with nine moving chains inside, (although at the moment the chains are not moving) the center chain moves in one direction while the other eight chains move in opposite directions, mimicking the currents in the harbor against the speed of the ship.

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.

We were standing all alone
You were leaning in to speak to me
Acting like a mover shaker
Dancing to Madonna then you kissed me
And I think about it all the time
Sweet temptation rush all over me
And I think about it all the time
Passion desire so intense I can't take anymore because
I feel the magic all around you
It's bringing me to my knees
Like a wannabe
I've got to be chained to you
And when you look into my eyes
Felt a sudden sense of urgency
Fascination casts a spell and
you became more than just a mystery
And I think about you all the time
Is this fate is it my destiny
That I think about you all the time
I no longer pretend to have my hand on the wheel because
I feel the magic all around you
It's bringing me to my knees
Like a wannabe
I've got to be chained to you
And I think about it all the time
And I think about it all the time
Tell me it's madness I barely know you
We were standing all alone
You were leaning in to speak to me
Ten steps back you're still a mystery
Acting like a mover shaker
Dancing to Madonna then you kissed me
I can't take anymore because
I feel the magic all around you
It's bringing me to my knees
Like a wannabe
I've got to be chained to you
Tell me it's madness
I barely know you

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

This was taken near the Budapest Castle Hill Funicular. The funicular runs till 21:00 hours in winter and is €4 return (Feb 2018). You can also take the stairs and that will take about 15 min or so. The castle grounds are open 24/7. There was nobody around at the time I was there and you can take some nice shots of the bridges and the buildings on Pest.

This is one I never finished capturing all the data I wanted for because I switched scopes at my remote observatory before this was completed so I could capture several other targets that were starting to come into the late spring sky. Due to the seemingly endless rain of late, I decided to go ahead an process what I did have so far anyway.
