Astrophotography Book Released: Royal Observatory, Greenwich

Looking for inspiration for night photography?  The book containing the best entries from 2009 – 2012 in the Astronomy Photographer of the Year contest is now available.  This isn't just some random observatory holding a photo contest.  When people designate a time in GMT, Greenwich Mean Time, that's referring to the time zone of the Prime Meridian, 0 degrees longitude, which was established as running through the Royal Observatory.  So all GPS coordinates are defined relative to the Royal Observatory.  There are some stunning concepts and results represented in this thick, hard cover edition.
