Is that the right closing date of Monday 20th Feb you've put on the challenge thread? If so, the challenge would already be closing today, or have I missed something?
Cheers

An interesting choice of theme. Unfortunately, I'm compelled to spend a week's holiday in wonderful Northumberland and don't have access to my archive. The shots I have saved on the laptop with me don't include any suitable material I'm afraid, there is a mixture of digital and film shots and I can't be sure which is which.
By the way, I've only been here a couple of days and the light is astonishing.
On the downside, this week I decided to use, exclusively, some of my cache of outdated colour film, only in 35mm. This morning I took my Canon F1 out and found that the mirror doesn't always return after each shot. I hope that doesn't affect the pictures, we'll see. As it happens, I brought a Nikomat as well and will use that instead this week.
So, good luck everyone. So far the minimal collection is looking good.

Sorry Nick @RaglanSurf !
(I spent ages looking for a couple of images I took in Mossman Gorge in Queensland, which has lovely huge water-washed stones; turns out one has a damaged negative and the other is digital.)

A well deserved win for @strax #202 Stones, over to you now for the next challenge.
Sorry if I have been a little tardy on this one, I am now back at the hotel after a day on the slopes and have internet, I also have an accordion player singing Austrian folk songs in the bar so my time connected may be limited by my tollerance to such things.

Yes, near the top of Swirral Edge, I think, even though I have never physically been there myself.

Me neither. I looked for a lake / tarn that appeared to be the right shape with a ridgetop footpath approacing from the left on Google Maps.

Before the vote, can I subtly alter my caption to read 'My bro', the big dog rapper.' instead of 'My bro', the big dog.'?

Any Lake District experts recognise this waterfall? I have an inkling that it may be Skelwith Force but it was more than 30 years ago.
