While this would have been gorgeous in B&W as well, I think the gold treatment is perfect - very appropriate given your comments and the subject. And I'm really glad you got such a great shot of your dad, too. It's an invaluable gift you'll always cherish, I'm quite sure. Of lesser importance, congrats on your new personal best, a top ten, and a great score.

Yeah, I wondered about that when I entered it... I just did a quick check: if I'd gotten exactly the same score in the B&W challenge I would have ended in exactly the same position: 9th. So at least I can be content about that :-)

Nicely genuine photo composition. Witwatersrand mines are famous, I know, and some of them hell holes too. I studied and worked in mines in the distant past and many of my colleagues came from the region.

Probably rather late to be leaving comments but I thought you might be interested in case you don't know.

Close to the Moon, at around the 10 o'clock position, you also managed to catch Antares.
