...well the local paper actually!!
Hello all,
My wife persuaded me to send a recent M42 pic to the local paper (Adelaide Hills Courier) for inclusion in their readers photos section.
They got back to me the next day saying they loved the pic and wanted to do a piece on backyard astronomy! Would I be interested!?
A hurried telephone interview followed,then a quick photoshoot at the scope, and the attached pdf file is a scan of the page that went to press on Wednesday.
I even got in a plug for IIS!!
Hope my ugly mug doesn't turn the kiddies off astronomy!!!

All the best
Doug
