Exciting news!!

[jjjnettie]

Woo Hoo!! I made the front cover of February edition of the UK publication "The Astronomer" :D This time with my image of the LMC / Comet Lovejoy conjunction.
It's the 3rd time I've been asked to submit an image for the mag. The first was in Oct 2010 with a deep shot of the LMC, and the second was an image of Antares with his beautiful reflection nebula that featured on the back cover of the 2011 May edition.



hee hee, I can't get that Dr Hook song out of my head now. :lol:

Well done Nettie. Shows that you've got to be in it to win it! :)

[niko]

well done and congratulations jjj

I had "walk right in, sit right down" going on in my head - wasn't sure how it fitted so, thanks for clarifying.

Also, only on an astro forum could you get away with saying "lovely tight stars" without getting your face slapped!

Congratulations JJJ. Constantly amazed at the photos posted by IIS members.

I hope that someone from the IIS forum gets their image of Comet Lovejoy published in Astronomy Australia 2013. The 2012 edition (Page 132) recycled the image of Comet McNaught from 2011.

LOL The Antares shot was on the "back cover". I've yet to actually make it into the inside of the mag. I'd have to discover a comet or supernova to do that.

Congratulations on a well deserved accolade :thumbsup: Big fan of the LMC in this image and gives me inspiration to better my own images. Although they could have chosen from many images from your gallery.
