There were a huge number of honourable mentions awarded, which David mentioned was testimony to the very large number of really fantastic images submitted. Right now, I can remember Mike Salway, Mike Sidonio, Marcus Davies, Terry Cuttle, Peter Ward, Phil Hart, Max Kilmister, Houghy (well done all!),

Ahem ... Eddie

... yours truely won the amateur deep sky category with my NGC 6188 shot

. My NGC 4945 got an hon mention. I thought Gary was the widefield winner (?) and Phil won the solar system category (?). I'm not known for my perfect recall either so feel free to
ahem me if I'm wrong!
This was my first DM and it was a very classy and enjoyable event - many thanks to CWAS, Cannon (Category winners received a Powershot G10) and Dr Malin of course! All the winning entries were absolutely stellar images too (pun intended).
It was great to meet you and a few other IIS devotees too ... and congratulations to all!
Cheers, Marcus
