First contest entries in...

Jul 5, 2003

The Astro Showcase page now features the first entrants to the “First All About Astro Photography Contest.” Please continue to email them to jay52@excite.com and I will post them as I receive them. Read the daily update below for information on how to send your entries.

Thanks to Dan O’Malley for being the first to send his fireworks picture for the contest. WOW!

I am sorry to announce that I have been sick for the last couple of nights; therefore, I was unable to take any fireworks photographs for myself! I am feeling better now, but I regret that I couldn’t join the fun…anyway, I am happy to provide this opportunity for others to explore some of the joys of the hobby.

I received my Tak FSQ-106 two days ago. It’s beautiful! I haven’t had the opportunity to use it yet, but when I do I’ll fill you in on my first impressions of this delightful piece of equipment.
