***** Challenge 83 *****

Hi everybody, I'm posting Challenge 83 on Rafael's request as he will not be able to access computer. I'm also pretty busy and doesn't have much access to computer. But I'm trying to do my best. But I guess I will not be able to declare the results as methodically and with detail explanations as I have seen in some previous challenges. I apologise for that.

Now looking at the decreasing participation in the challenges nowadays the topic of Challenge 83 will be a simple one -"EARTH, SEA & SKY". feel free to post any pictures with any one of this as a main subject. Basically it's a landscape challenge. I have no problem with some human presence or some man made sructures as long as they don't become the main subject (e.g. a city skyline with some sky).

Please reply to the FIRST (ORIGINAL) post if you are submitting an entry and please RENAME THE SUBJECT TO INDICATE THE TITLE OF YOUR ENTRY.

R U L E S:

The host gives you a topic of interest and you get going. You post ONE image (if you post more than one image, the first will be your entry in the challenge). The host chooses a winner after closing. The decision of the judge (the Host) is final. The judge is not eligible. The winner then chooses the next topic, runs the challenge, judges the winner and passes on the baton to that person. If the winner fails to post a new challenge within 72 hours of being declared the winner then the runner-up should post the new challenge within a further 24 hours.

Feel free to comment on other contestant's images. If you want someone to leave you a piece of constructive criticism, put a (CC) next to the title of your image [e.g. Sunset with Canada Geese (CC)].

Please embed your image in the thread. Try to resize your photos prior to posting so they're sized appropriately for viewing without having to scroll (800 pixels on the longest side works best.)

Thanks to all and good luck!!

The challenge will close Thursdayday the 23th of July 12:00 p.m. GMT time.

As this is my first challenge hosting feel free to correct me if I have done something wrong. Thank you everybody

Rajesh
