Announcing the 2010 CWAS "David Malin Awards"

The Central West Astronomical Society is proud to announce the 2010 CWAS "David Malin Awards".

As usual, this year's competition introduces new ideas, concepts, and innovations with the view to making the competition more exciting, relevant and contemporary. The competition this year will have three sections of entry - General Section, Open Themed Section and a Junior Section (18 and under).

The General Section is divided into five categories; Wide-field (camera shots), Deep Sky (telescope shots), Solar System Objects - Hi-Resolution (<30') and Wide-Field (> 30') - and a new category for Animated  Sequences.

The theme for this year's Themed Open Section is "The Moonlit Landscape". The Junior Section will have one open category and entries can be of any subject.

Last years exhibition was a resounding success and was one of the premier events of the IYA in Australia. People from all walks of life, and all over Australia, were given the opportunity to view the photographs and appreciate the efforts and skills of the nation¹s finest amateur astrophotographers.

So, start preparing your astrophotographs for the prestigious "David Malin Awards" and share with the wider public the grandeur and beauty of astronomy.

For more information on the competition, and the conditions of entry, see the official David Malin Awards website.
