Blowing the Horn

I just got word tonight that I made front cover to The Astronomer magazine!
I'm really really chuffed!
The editor, Guy Hurst, approached me a few weeks ago to submit a few images. He chose to use the LMC image, the one I had in the IIS compendium.

Then, again, tonight I was PM'd by a consultant doing a climate project for Somerset Council who was seeking permission to use a couple of my images of the Kilcoy Flood for the final report and a presentation to council.

My head is swelling. Published 4 times in one year. LOLOL
(I also was in sky and tel, and one of my photos is on the SDM website now)

Jeanette, I'm sure that in your younger days you would have made the front cover of many magazines. In fact, probably still could.

Congratulations JJ!
Each time I see something of yours published I get goosebumps of excitement, because I feel sooo proud. And there was that brilliant article that you wrote as well that was published! I always show your pics to hubby- running towards him at torpedo speed with your pic in my hand and jumping up and down as if got 10" springs under my feet.
Way to go!

Hello.... Is that Max Markson????

Get JJJ some exposure in the TV morning shows and some UK online magazines....STAT!

You're my hero JJJ, don't forget your friends when you drive by in your stretch Hummer....

Now all you need to do is about 150 repros and you are GOLD!
