CV Summary:
Mark Radice is an amateur astronomer and photographer based near Salisbury in England (a stone’s throw from Stonehenge) with a passion for observing the night sky.
He started actively observing using a borrowed pair of binoculars when comet Hyakutake crossed the sky in [too many years ago now!]and now enjoys using his own equipment from a garden observatory.
Mark has been published several times in Astronomy Now and is shortlisted for the 2021 AstroPhotography of the Year competition.
Astronomical interests include high resolution lunar and planetary imaging, deep sky sketching and binocular observing - all with a cup of tea.
He writes occasionally for Astronomy Now, enjoys visiting dark skies and star parties in the UK and overseas and writes too infrequently on his own blog.
