I made a comment elsewhere that the local AUSTRALIAN SKY AND TELESCOPE magazine had not displayed any local images in its images section. and got this reply

Plenty of "potential" local talent
Clive,
Yes, AS&T's Aug/Sep Gallery is a selection of global shots. Gallery depends on reader submissions, and Autumn's contributions were too similar to pics published in recent issues - maybe the weather is to blame.
So, for those who are reading this, if you're an astrophotographer with images you think are worthy of being published, e-mail 'em in!
We offer a 3-issue subscription in return for those that are published, and your images are seen by a wide Australian/NZ audience.
October's Gallery is 4 pages of local shots.

So in fairness to the magazine, i thought i would give those who want their 5 minutes of fame the opportunity, i think the "potential " meant no-one submitted. So if you want your big chance here it is.
i would rather see OUR LOCAL images than some imported stuff.
Cheers Clive
edit... i put this here in deep sky as many dont visit the other departments, and its here that the potential lies.
