I'm new to the site. I've read it for reviews, advice, etc. over the years, but just now became a member. I registered only a few minutes ago.
How do I submit to this challenge?

nevermind. I see that it's full.

Seems a lot of these should be DQ'ed for not having the sun visible in it per the rules. Maybe you can do a follow-up challenge but make it with "no visible sun". Both ways offer interesting possibilities.

Please file a compliant against any picture you feel does not meet the requirements. I will try to dq all of them, but I might miss a
few.
