Astrophotography by Jason Jennings |
Accolades
Producing astro images can be likened to playing golf. Whilst there is plenty of comradery on the course similar to an astrophotography event or imaging party, it is very much a solo pursuit. Improvement comes with ones own practise, patience and ultimately, the only person you're looking to beat is yourself by improving on your last score or in this case, your last image. As the astrophotography journey continues, I wish to share forms of recognition be it an award, publication or simply a noteworthy item obtained along the way. This listing is in chronological order.
