Congratulations Mark getting M81 published in Astronomy Now.

I think yours looks better than Nik Szymanek's, I think he used too much vaseline  ;)

Thanks everyone!

I haven't seen it myself yet 'cos I'm down in France (where it's been raining solidly and the prediction is for more of the same over the coming days).  My C11 is sitting there looking very unhappy.

The image was this one I took at the last DSC:

The May issue arrived through my letter box some time after Friday. Maybe the subscriber copies get posted early?

Oops, hadn't really paid much attention to the date - will do so in future  :)

I have a subscription because ...................

a) I can trick people into buying old copies of AN  :twisted:

or

b) I'm too bone idle to walk to Smiths  :oops:

In my case it's definitely "b"...  :twisted:
