Well we can't quite believe it ...... our Aurora image we entered in the International Astronomy Show competition has been chosen as a runner up out of over 200 images! This was taken from the hills surrounding Oldham & Rochdale!!
We have won a years subscription to Astronomy Now Magazine!! Can't tell you how pleased we are, but don't feel worthy as there were some amazing images entered! The votes were just for fun and the judges chose the winners but thanks for all who voted for our pic!
