It looks like a great article Asi

Great to amateur astronomers getting recognition.

Thanks again all! Funny stuff! I just decided to sit down & actually read this edition of the news mail 5 mins ago & came across yet another image of mine! It's now a 3 page spread - BONUS!

I've been in contact with the crew at the News Mail, & yes the online version comes out monday & they assure me, minus a couple of mistakes that I've pointed out.

Onya News Mail crew!

Astronomical images... "from above". Hmmm , where else would you look to get astronomical images? I look forward to reading the online version. John.

Haha, it had been a long time between posts so I thought I'd jump the gun!

always great to see the hobby get a good mention. and i suspect it must be a great feeling seeing your pictures in print! I'm glad they got the solar system line up in there.

[asimov (John)]

Yes Stu..Didn't ask them to print my email address OMG - Oh well, I was due to start up a new account anyway..

Thanks Russ. yes pretty exciting stuff. The printed version was ok but I generally work online & my photo's are designed with this in mind too so for me, the online version makes me very happy.
