Edited on Mon Jan-04-10 03:25 AM by Adsos Letter
and wish good luck to all who entered! :thumbsup:

Night Lights




And with that, I'm off to Philadelphia for the month, so I won't be spammin' the board. Happy New Year to you all! :D

1. You certainly CAN enter it!
The field has been expanded to forty entries.

2. Can you put that in for him?
If he's really gone, he may not get your response.

13. Have a great time.........
Well, you could EASILY win this. So I can certainly understand your not entering.

Be sure to post some pictures when you can.

7. I don't physically leave for 2 days, Cassandra, but mentally, I'm already gone...
actually, my family has been saying I've been mentally gone for years now. :D

Thanks for your kind suggestion, but I would be unable to host the next contest in the highly unlikely chance that I should win this one.

Best regards! :hi:

5. Thankyou, regnaD kciN, but (in the highly unlikely case that I should actually capture first place)
I would be unable to host the next photo contest, as I will be traipsing about the East Coast this month.

Still, I wanted to share.

And thanks again! :hi:

9. Right . . .
It had that "very familiar" feel to it. Beautiful part of the world. I love the acoustics in the tunnel/bunker at the top of the hill.

10. Indeed! Do you play an instrument there?
I was up there last week and several people were playing instruments in there. One gentleman was playing a wind instrument in one of the alcoves, just before the empty 16" gun emplacements. Gorgeous, haunting melody!!

11. I've only been there once
But the next time I go there it'll be fully armed with a few flutes, a didgeridoo, a Tibetan singing bowl, drum, rattles and a digital recorder. My idea of a really good time.

15. Thanks, Mz Pip! Say...you haven't been out to the lighthouse at Pt. Bonita lately, have you?
...that pic you posted in the contest looks an awful lot like some people I spoke to out there last week. :D

...and now I truly am off to Philly (in a couple days, anyway, but it's time to get off DU and get ready to go).
