was expecting to see on the cover of the mag and
i think as you've stated Anthony's article is a great
read.It offers the reader a more in dept prespective
on what is a more complex form of astronomical
observations than what first appears to the eye.
Steve as always thanks for your kind words and
appreciation.The best startrail image you've ever
seen........... wow thanks man i can't top that

that has to be the best ever star trail image I have ever seen
Got to agree with that.
My next scope is going to be a Vixen VMC200L Catadioptric OTA

Equally you only "arrive" as a Supermodel when you make the cover of "Vogue" magazine.
Dogstar is our very own "Rock Star Supermodel".

you take an image of your own it sometimes
takes a wee while before you appreciate it as well
as some others might at least thats the case with
me. But I'm finally realising it is a special image
so thanks once again for the encouragement. Mark, Rock
star i like the sound of that as for the supermodel
........well lets just say we obviously have never met

Hey PJ i know you don't miss much and you have
a keen eye for these images so thanks a lot.
Anthony,Frank and Paul comeing from guys who produce
stunning results on a regular basis your comments mean
a lot so thanks ever so much

a keen eye for these images so thanks a lot.
I've been told that my everyday terrestrial digital images are pretty damn good..............(i guess i have an eye for a good image). When it comes to astrophotography..................i know less then next to nothing.
I am simply admiring a top class image like this one. In MY opinion.........this image cant get any better.
Infact......................have you thought about having it professionally blown up to poster size?
I think quite a few of us here would be interested in buying a copy to hand on the wall.
My next scope is going to be a Vixen VMC200L Catadioptric OTA

The first time I saw one of your Neolithic/Astronomy images I was blown away. This one of the Polar trails though is a real stunner. Simply couldn't be better - superb composition, exposure etc. etc.
