16th October 202121st March 2022 Dave Astrophotography Competition, world champion 2021

This is it people! It’s time to decide who the nPAE World Champion Astro Photographer 2021 is…

Will you choose the reigning champion, Boris from Chile with his “Grito Galactico” photo? Or maybe Lorand from Hungary who won the Northern Hemisphere this year with his amazing Andromeda shot, or perhaps you’ll vote for the Southern Hemisphere winner by Hugo from Argentina with his incredible all-seeing eye Helix nebula image! You decide below. Voting closes at midnight on Sunday 24^th October.

Perhaps Boris will triumph for the second year in a row ?

Will Lorand take the World Champion title as well as the Northern Hemisphere ?

Maybe Hugo’s Helix Nebula will see off the competition!

We have a new World Champion! It was a big week of furious voting over on npae .net as both Boris from Chile and Hugo from Argentina rallied patriotic voting. Boris picked up the early votes by getting some announcements on the Chilean radio station RadioActiva! Awesome! But Hugo, undeterred by being a few hundred votes behind, engineering an amazing comeback to win with a margin of over 1,000 votes and total share of 60% of all votes cast. Amazing!

Well done to all 3 contenders in the World Championship public vote. To get into the vote is a massive achievement in its own right. And thanks to all those who voted to make this contest happen.

The final numbers are: In 3rd place with 68 votes (1.44%) is Lorand from Hungary with Andromeda. In 2nd place with 1,811 votes (38.43%) is Boris from Chile with Grito Galactico. And in 1st place with 2,833 votes (60.12%) is Hugo from Argentina with the Helix Nebula.

Congratulations Hugo! We look forward to learning more about you in the near future.

That’s all for the nPAE 2021 Astrophotography Competitions. Keep those optics polished and cameras tracking as we will be back, bigger and better than ever, in 2022.

Alpha Lyra Reviews

On Our Theia 90 Star Diagonal
“First impressions of the diagonal itself are very favourable, looking like a solid and well-engineered piece of equipment.“ “Using Jupiter and a third quarter Moon, I evaluated scatter around the object which can diminish the visibility of low contrast surface features. If there were any differences in brightness and extent of the scatter (measured against the position of the Galilean satellites), I was unable to see it.“ “All these tests lead me to conclude that mirror in the Theia90 is of high quality and very much the equal of other quality, highly reflective mirror diagonals”

On Our Cerberus Case"The team seem rather proud of these cases and just how robust they are as Nick (who stands over 6 feet tall) demonstrated to me at Astrofest by standing on the case and then jumping up and down on it. [...] the Cerberus Case would be an excellent choice for an eyepiece case or as a travel case for a small 6-8cm aperture scope and accessories for trips to dark distant lands as those dimensions comply with the most restrictive of hand baggage allowances."
