Drawings submitted for the SSC2007 competition.

Theme: any object or phenomenon from the heliosphere.
 
All the drawings are fantastic!

We are very grateful that the teachers encouraged the pupils to take a few moments to think about the theme and produce such imaginative pieces of art.

Anybody could have been a winner of the first prize - but we had to select just one.

But you are all winners because you took the time and the trouble to try out some astro-art.  

Thank you all very much!

And if you want to produce more drawings, please send them to me - they will be displayed on-line on the International Heliosphysical Year (IHY2007) website.
