My understanding is that to date the $15 entry fee per image received from all non winning or Honorable Mention worthy CWAS DM entries has contributed to producing the annual exhibition of winning images and this has been organised by a not for profit astronomical society..so, perhaps this is fair enough to many.

So in light of this and unless I am overlooking some details, one issue I see with this new collaborative venture is that now it costs $15 to have an image of yours considered for publication by a commercial operation that stands to make profit from your image and this will only occur if one person (DM) likes your image...is this equitable?
