Good Luck for everyone

I have so many boring pictures taken from my balcony.
I like most of them.
But none of them fit into the deadline.
And what should I do? Huh?
Take new ones?

Yes… that’s what I’d suggest.

If it looked good the first time, it may look even better the second time.

Evidently I can't figure out how to pay it in the correct place.

As an FYI- see the first post for details on how to submit, as submissions don't go in this thread. If you were just intended to post a photo, we can also move it for you.

This is my first time to post anything much less enter a contest. Use vintage lenses on mirrorless cameras so I don't know what I used sometimes.
