White, Blue, Black, Grey: The Skies Of Day & Night

Challenge #3 in the Colours & Shades: The World I Know series. Hosted by Stormcastle.

Challenge has finished

This challenge is all about the things above this world of ours - the skies, the clouds, the heavens, the moon, and the stars. All of you out there who are drawn to look up are invited to submit your best photo of the sky and anything in it - can be a wide angle landscape, or it can be an extreme telephoto shot of the moon. It can be a bird... it can be a plane... it can be Superman if you spot him.

Additional rules:

You are asked to only submit photos that are honest to the subject matter and are more spur of the moment if you can - pre-planned photographs add an artificial quality.
However, ultimate judgment on what you submit is entirely up to you.
VOTERS :
- 0.5s should only be given on images of poor quality or for being outside the rules.
- If giving any 0.5s, reasons should be given: if you give it, stand by it.
