Please read the appropriate DISCUSSION THREAD to be up to date before posting. You may post as many photographs in the discussion thread but the actual contest thread is limited to one photo.
The theme of the photo you enter in the "Theme" contest is determined by the winner of the last contest.
To be able to stay on a monthly schedule, the last day for submitting entry photographs will be five days before the end of the month, ie, if the month ends on the 30th then photos must be submitted no later than the 25th. If the month ends on the 31st then photos must be submitted no later than the 26th. Etc...
There are 31 days in January 2015, so, entries will end on January 26th, 2015.
The poll will be opened the day after the last day for submitting entry photographs.

So many of these shots are right place at the right time. Of course what people don't see are the many less than impressive shots from the right place at the wrong time!
For the next theme how about "Deep Blue"?
Sounds good, a thought provoker, should be interesting. So the theme for the January 2015 Theme Contest is "Deep Blue" !.
This was shot at sunset on a SW Florida beach. Colors were good that evening. Shot with a cellphone, able to catch the breaking wave. Not a Hawaii curl but nice action.
