Well done to Steve, but a big thanks to all those that entered

I, too, was thrilled to be involved in the judging. Although I have to say it was really quite a difficult choice. 

Looking forward to next months

Mind you I reckon that's a TIE fighter not the ISS in Ibbo's image

More than happy to be on the "podium"   some fabulous images posted here. Love the transits in particular,  still on my to do list.

[AndyUK]

Yes - Very well done to all those who entered .  It was indeed really difficult to try and differentiate between the entries - We have a lot of very skillful imagers on SGL !

My congrats also to those who won these medals. Don't rest on your laurels though. There were quite a few entries who only just missed out this time. Nice to see such a huge variety of targets in our first competition. Looking forward to the next one

Congratulations to the winners and kudos to all who participated because I'm sure the competition was tight. A nice selection of objects in the winner's circle: a star, a moon, a planet, and a space station!

[carastro]

Amazing images, congratulations to every-one and in particular the winners.

Well done all.  I have just got hold of a copy of Making Every Photon Count, so maybe I can provide some competition at some point in the future!
