Way offfffffff topic (perhaps ) , but there was this BC cartoon. BC asked Peter (who was selling fishing days) what he, BC would get for his money. Peter said he, Peter, would manage the boat, the kit and the bait, locate the fish, bait the hooks, play and land the fish, scale and clean them. As Peter punted off leaving BC standing on the shore, BC called out - "Tell me if I have fun?"

LOL Erick
And, to extend the fishing/ imaging analogy - regardless of how it's caught, the real art is in the preparation!

I really like it how all the images submitted so far are so unique and each is so good in it's own right. It's not like there's a bad and good version of the same thing, they're all different with pros and cons to each. Goes to show there's nothing to lose in submitting an image.

Yep include NZlanders, that's a big enough ditch and cultural divide to cross!

I don't know whether to submit a conjunction type image (eg: smiley face, or moon/mercury/venus/jupiter), or a collage of planetary images, or try and squeeze them all in.
