7-day / 10-year rule invoked….

The photos taken must be your own work
The competition will run from the first to the last day of the month.
The winner from the previous month decides on the topic for following month and judges it at the end of the month
Entries and discussion on a single thread, please.
All entrants acknowledge that they may indeed win and that their adherence to convention ensures everyone else's continued fun.
Winners should update the Competition Wiki (it's easy)
Photos entered can be as large as you like, although bear in mind if too large, it may not be possible to see the whole image on some screens. Links to larger versions are permissible.
If after 7 days of a competition ending, either a winner has not been declared, or the winner has not created a new thread, a new thread should be started, with the topic set as whatever the topic was 10 years ago, based on this wiki.

Well done Nigel and thanks smile

Please can anybody who enters remember that you might win and then have the duty of setting and judging the following month!

Here's my best effort at this month's comp:

Not sure if this quite fits the bill, a different view of being alone…



Yes, I was there with permission, before anyone asks…

Shepherd's Hut in Snowdonia, one of very few places in the UK with zero light pollution.
Very solitary if you don't count the sheep.
The bright light source is Venus.

So I'm guessing Nessiemac is in the frame for judging as he won last month, even though he didn't set the theme.

Nigel - do we have a rule or precedent for who should judge it in this scenario? If not can you do it please? smile
