Weekly Challenge #264: Space
Posted By: mecrox, 11-11-2013, 04:40 AM

The theme for this week's competition is Space.

Outer, inner, empty, vast, tiny, lack of, not enough, too much, negative, bright, dark, enthralling, frightening, literal or figurative, and just about anything else that inspires you - it's all up to you.

This challenge will run through Sunday November 17th and close by midnight GMT (which is EST +5, CST +6 and PST +8).

Rules are as follows:

1. Post one photo (max 1024 X 1024).
2. The photo must portray an interpretation of the theme.
3.Post your single photo in this thread. If it's not obvious, explain what motivated you to submit the photo and how you feel it represents the weekly theme.
4.The challenge is interactive. Any response is welcome.
5.The judge will pick the winner, who will then host and judge the next week's challenge.
6.The challenge closes after seven days.This allows a day for the judge to pick the winners.
7. Any Pentax (or Samsung) DSLR is acceptable.
8. Photos can be from any time frame, not just the week of the current challenge.
9. In case the winner of a challenge is unable to become the judge of the next week's challenge, the winner will PM the #2 winner and pass on the baton to that person to host and judge the next week's challenge

9 Minutes away in space

The light from this star takes 9 minutes to get here to Earth. I used the very dark lens glass from a welding hood and a 135mm lens to get a picture of it without burning out my eyes or camera...
