Thumbs up Nice spot on NBN News tonight :)

I had a nice spot on NBN News tonight, thanks to Michael Cain who came around to my house today and did a follow-up after he did the original story when I won the Ken Duncan competition.

Their site needs the quicktime or WMP plugin so may work best in IE:

http://www.nbnnews.com.au/index.php/...ng-to-the-sky/

Not sure if anyone would've seen it because I think it only aired on the Central Coast edition, not the Newcastle one.

Nice one Mike.
By the way, I was driving up to Crows Nest today and while stopped in the traffic I saw at a bus shelter one of those revolving advertisement things, and lo & behold there was your nightscape of the Bungle Bungles used for WA tourism ad

Thanks guys, and thanks Adam.

It's been great to see photos of my image on bus shelters etc. I haven't seen one myself yet, but tomorrow I'm going to be taking a walk to Wynyard to check it out

It was also used on the national NineMSN and Bigpond websites as banner ads!
