It's not often I get the time to personally welcome all new members to IceInSpace.. some days there are lots of new members so I just don't have time to single them all out.
But I did recognise the name when Alan Dyer registered today.
I met Alan Dyer at SPSP15 last year (in 2007), when he came out for the event, gave a talk and also did some observing with us through Rod's 20" SDM scope ("Mary Rose"). Alan (and John Sarkissian) spent some time observing with us in between taking his great astrophotography.
Check out
Alan's Website Blog for some great stories and pictures - especially his solar eclipse shots from last week which I also saw featured on SpaceWeather the other day.

to IceInSpace, Alan. I hope you enjoy your stay and would love to see your valuable contributions here.
