Where in the world does it snow in August?! Bizzare. :)

Sorry. Not a big fan of this fake looking IR stuff. Nonetheless, good luck in the challenge.

Another good infrared shot inverted. It looks like stars up above, but since there are none in the original image below I assume it's stuff floating on the water. Good one

been a lot of fives and sixes but al i can say now is 10 :) Especially love the gradient the creates deliberate confusion giving the illusion of night sky.

Great shot, but I would have liked to see a bit more at the top (of the frame, lol). It feels crowded. Still best score so far from me.
