That's a lot of sunrise/sunset photos (here and on the Aus comp.). :-) Must be the season for it or something.

Indeed, it was extraordinarily hard to pick one.
Perhaps if the standard and numbers stay as high we could try preferential voting for 1-3?

Congratulations Koolix for a great image - I'd love to hear your story of the walk. Looks like you had a reasonable time... :D

There are no losers this month - all great photos.
I thought I would share a link to a close-up of my image for this month, have a look here.

Hi Nuts.
The competitions are anonymous - the names of the photographers of each image are not posted until after the competition winner is announced after voting closes so not sure what you mean on that one.
The description of each photo is what it is titled by the photographers themselves when they enter the photo in the comp, so it is up to the photographer as to whether they want to be discrete about where the image was taken.
Hope that clears things.
