Imaging Challenge #5 - Solar & Solar Eclipse- NOW CLOSED

[admin 1,618]

The theme for the fifth challenge - July 2017 - is Solar & Solar Eclipse.

Start Date: 1st July 2017
End Date: 30th September 2017

This time it's a double challenge - the first is a general solar challenge so any image / video that fits the theme 'Solar' will be accepted. The second part will have it's own set of winners and this is for any solar eclipse images taken during the upcoming eclipse. With both parts, you can be as artistic as you like so long as they fit with the themes

Prize: Winners of both parts will receive £100 of FLO gift vouchers to buy some goodies with! Kindly provided by our sponsors FLO  and a virtual trophy for your signature.

Cant wait. Been running through my automated imaging programme, ready for my trip to Wyoming. With a bit of luck, I should be able to relax and enjoy the show, whilst the camera/mount/laptop combo do all the work. Assuming they let me take the equipment on the plane, of course.

I know it's weeks away, but I'm getting twitchy!

I shall be in eastern Oregon. Should be able to put some awesome entries in before the deadline. No computer to help me though. Can never practice my 2 minute routine enough!
