Ok, I think everybody (including me) is a bit confused at this stage. Nordlys, you seem to have your head on your shoulders. Could you be a star and sort out this mess? Let us know which round is currently open, deadlines and all that. 😀 I'd love to, but the celebration drinks went on a bit late last night, and I can just about tie my own shoelaces today.
Thanks,

I just saw the first nordlys of the season. 🙂 I took some pictures, although I don't think any of them will be very good - the aurora was not very strong, it usually didn't stay long in one place (so when I had the camera ready, it was often gone), and it was partly hidden by clouds. But it was nice to explore my new observation spot, and hopefully I'll get many more opportunities to take aurora pictures there.

Originally posted by RagnorakI don't have anything for this round. So you didn't get any entries so far? It would be a pity not to have this round, although not too surprising, as it is an interesting, but difficult and somewhat unusual category.
Bump. Anybody planning on entering this round?

I seriously thought about snapping the turning faces when the salvation army collectors came through the pub the other night (had my camera).. I chickened out.. Just thinking about the round I believe opened my eyes and mind a little to the plight of others. Thanks rag.
