Congrats to Martin McKenna

Well done Martin! Is this your first photo to be published?

Thanks Seannie

I have got an image on Astronomy Magazine Pic of the day for the website and two on the BBC's 'Sky At Night' site but never had one published in a magazine before ....so i am delighted. It was the last thing i was expecting today

Thanks Keith for letting me know..i couldnt see the October edition in the shops up here so i was in the dark untill your post...thanks again

Thanks very much everyone. This was a bit of a suprise as i have only heard about it there now lol

Martin,

This is one of my criticisms of Astronomy Magazine as well. I have been fortunate to have my work appear in this particular magazine a number of times and knew about each photo's appearance only upon receipt of the said issue.

For example, about a week ago I received the Nov/2005 issue and found that my image of Vallis Rheita was used in the article by Robert Burnham. Not that I am complaining about the use of the image (!) but it would have been very nice if a quick email had been sent by the magazine ahead of time alerting me of the pleasant event.

I have a similar problem with Astronomy Now who also do not inform their contributors that something will be used in the Gallery section.

It is these little things that make Sky&Telescope stand out yet again over all the rest!

Anthony.

Well Done Martin

Nice one Martin, well done

Congratulations Martin.
