Just watched the slideshow on the BBC website on that, some stunning picture's there, and I think I agree with the judges decision on the winner

If you want a great coffee table book in Astronomy with great photo's buy Cosmos by Giles Sparrow, you will not regret it

Picked this up half price a few years ago - absolutely superb! Also the biggest book I've ever seen, I think.

There's a video of that - https://vimeo.com/58385453

Wish I knew about that place when I was in NZ, I'd love to have seen that.

For brilliant astronomy photos, you only need POD.

Just got a copy of this book delivered today, as per the post a few up a real bargain on amazon at the moment. Only had a quick look through so far but looks very good!
I expected quite a big book, but it is massive! I'm not sure you could buy the same quantity of blank paper for £16
