[Ned Harris]

Congratulations Jay. That is a major accomplishment and well deserved.

[Dave S.]

Joe & Jay,

A well deserved congratulations to both of you!  Quite the month of December for members of our group!!

[Scott Youmans]

Great work Jay!

[Jeff D. Welker]

Great work Jay!

Hang on now Mr. Humble Youmans. It comes to my attention the four of your images were chosen in the "Military Fighters 1" category for AW&ST magazine. Now two AzAP members are properly recognized. Add in Joe's tremendous recognition in Air Forces Monthly and Warthog News - we have a terrific trifecta. Well done all.

CORRECTION - I am informed that two of Messrs. Youmans images were also selected in the "Rotorcraft / Tiltrotors" category. It should also be noted that Messrs. Beckman had a second image chosen for the "Airshow Finalists" category in addition to his cover shot. That's a total of eight images from two of AzAP's preeminent shooters selected by AW&ST for publication in their annual Photography Contest. I take great pride to know I get to rub shoulders with such talented folks.

For clarification, the contest I won was through Air Forces Monthly.  Warthog News just posted about it since it was an A-10 shot.

Thanks for the clarification Joe - sorry about my misstatement. That being said, it appears your image was recognized in two publications. A double congrats is in order 

[Jay Beckman]

Congrats Scott!  I just saw that expanded list!

[Chris Janes]

Congrats to the Three Amigos! Nice work all..

[Scott Youmans]

Wow guys!  Where is this list posted?  I am completely in the dark.

[Jay Beckman]

Larry Grace posted it on the ISAP Facebook page (informal) and its also on the Mustang Air To Air thread on Fred Miranda

This will be the cover shot of the 2012 Aviation Week & Space Technology Photography and Art issue...

My copy of AvWeek's Photography & Art issue just arrived, looking quite splendid with Jay's shot on the cover.

[Jay Beckman]

Huzzah!

[Joe Copalman]

Does this issue answer Scott's question as to whether his winning images were published as well?

[Dave S.]

Yes, it should.  Can check/verify when I get back home.

[Scott Youmans]

I haven't seen a printed copy but what I saw online indicates that other than Jay's cover shot, none of the finalist's photos were featured. Only first, second, and third places.  I guess "finalist" doesn't imply winning in a tangible way. Oh well.  Major congratulations to Jay though.  Very cool.  I think I'd rather have the cover shot than a prize!

Still not sure what all of those sub-catagories that were listed on the ISAP page were all about. The AW&ST magazine (online version) has no such catagories.
