Description

During the April 8 2024 new moon, I got away to one of my favorite dark sky sites.  Summer Lake Oregon.  I added one full night of data to my Markarian's Chain project. I culled a good number of frames due to the wind that was challenging at times.  I had started the project back at home April 1, in B5/B6 area.   Then I added the data from both places together and came up with a better image, I believe.  More time on target revealed many more galaxies than I had previously captured.
