Astronomy photographer of the year - A special evening

#1

Post by avdhoeven »


After 6 times being shortlisted I finally made it this year into the winners of the astronomy photographer of the year competition. I got a 2nd place in the 'people and space' category. I'm so honoured and really happy. Really didn't expect it to happen...

My son (who won the young category in 2019 and was 3rd in 2018) also succeeded again in getting a 3rd place. Our evening is a very special one now
